Another BP ? .....

"  Apple boss Steve Jobs has defended conditions at a Taiwanese electronics 
firm that produces the firm's popular iPhone, following a spate of suicides.
"Foxconn is not a sweatshop," he told a conference in the US.
Mr Jobs said that Apple representatives were working with Foxconn to find out 
why 10 workers had killed themselves at a factory in Shenzhen, China.  "

No standards of any sort were employed in reporting this news :)
