Legendary department store Bloomingdales has been forced to apologize and pull a T-shirt with the words “fake news” emblazoned on it, after the top triggered a number of journalists.
Allison Kaden, a reporter with a local news outlet in New York, snapped a photo of a mannequin wearing the offending shirt while inside a Bloomingdales store over the weekend, and she was immediately and irreparably scandalized.
“Hey @Bloomingdales,” Kaden wrote in a tweet that has since gone viral. “[T]his isn’t funny or fashionable. It further delegitimizes hard working journalists who bring REAL news to their communties.”
