] At the same time, it's not entirely surprising, given the
] backlash the retailer faced last year that eventually
] forced it to pull the plug on the A&F quarterlies that
] featured nude "teenage-looking" models in highly
] suggestive poses.
]
] Meanwhile, advocacy groups such a Citizens for Community
] Values (CCV) say that while the new publication is "much
] improved" over the past, it's still unacceptable to them.
]
] "The young book is the first response from the
] Abercrombie after they ended the quarterly. But we find
] that they're still pushing the envelope," said Bill
] Johnson, president of CCV.

The "Citizens for Community Values"? WTF? And God forbid someone push the envelope. Geez, if people did that all the time, why there'd be innovations left and right! Dang nappit!
