FoxConn Sues Newspaper – ESWN

From EastSouthWestNorth blog:

After an investigation, Apple has now basically said that things were not as bad as the two British tabloids reported, although some improvements will be required on the part of FoxConn. This was not terribly surprising since the British tabloid reports were deemed suspect by others already.

Afterwards, FoxConn may have a reasonable case to sue Mail on Sunday and Daily Mirror. Would they? NO! It would be too hard for them to file suit in the United Kingdom. Instead, FoxConn has elected to go after Shanghai-based First Financial Daily.

As evidence, FoxConn cited First Financial Daily reporter Wang You (Áéã‰Ωë)’s article titled “FoxConn workers are punished by the machines to stand for 12 hours (Chinese).” Furthermore, the newspaper and reporter invented a saying: ÂππÂæóÊØîÈ©¢Á¥ØÔºåÂêÉÂæóÊØîÁå™Â∑ÆÔºå˵∑ÂæóÊØîÈ∂èÊó©Ôºå‰∏ãÁè≠ÊØîÂ∞èÂßêÊôöÔºåË£ùÂæóÊØîÂ≠´Â≠ê‰πñÔºåÁúã‰∏äÂéªÊØîË™∞ÈÉΩ•ΩÔºå‰∫îÂπ¥ÂæåÊØîË™∞ÈÉΩËÄÅ about FoxConn workers.
