Funny how sensationalistic and headline-grabbing the new outlets are on this issue. Foxconn, the Chinese manufacturer of motherboard parts, also supplies parts to Nokia, Motorola, Sony Ericsson, Palm, and is the main manufacturer of the Amazon Kindle. Yet, you don't see any of *those* names in the headlines. Why not? Maybe it's because Apple was the only one of those manufacturers to do an independent audit of the factories. Not "iPhone" factories, Foxconn factories. The same factories pumping out Kindles and products for many other manufacturers.

But, by all means, grab those headlines with yellow journalism and lack of understanding the situation.
