The consumer reporter was demoing an online t-shirt business with two female station employees modeling shirts that read,”I can make you feel cheep,” and “I can take 80% off.” While this demonstration in no way rises to the level of actionable harassment, you might want to rethink your workplace culture if putting female employees in clothes that talk about their promiscuity is part of it.

Here’s the rest of what I read this week:
