As Mediaite reported, Zara had a similar problem before:

In 2007 Zara removed a handbag from its stores after it discovered the embroidered pattern contained swastikas.

But, hey, they apologized! Except then this happened:

@Matthops82 "Our contract with Direct TV is up for renewal. How else will we watch Fox News all day without your support!" @mmfa

1. you misspelled "lying" 2. Doesn't Soros have enough money to keep you lying for another 10 years?@mmfa

@Matthops82 @mmfa I'll forward this to George Soros.

— Klown 2.0 (@realmyiq2xu2) September 16, 2014

Thanks, buddy. Maybe Uncle George can finally give Eric Boehlert and friends the resources they need to expose actual media bias:
