“Clothing retailer Lands’ End has issued a formal apology for featuring an interview with feminist icon Gloria Steinem in its spring catalog after backlash from the anti-abortion movement.
"We greatly respect and appreciate the passion people have for our brand," a spokeswoman told The Huffington Post in a statement. "It was never our intention to raise a divisive political or religious issue, so when some of our customers saw a recent promotion that way, we heard them. We sincerely apologize for any offense."
Steinem’s interview was the first to be featured in the company's new “Legends Series,” which is meant to showcase influential people in Lands' End's catalog and on its website.”
