Just repeat the mantra "Apple is evil" and you are good.
Clearly everyone else is running better factories (never mind that we know Amazon gets components from the same companies as Apple) and that is because the other companies like making a profit less then Apple and are applying a ton of pressure so that the workers in those factories are making good wages and are not dying from poor handeling of chemicals and other issues.
It can't be that people are focused on Apple because they are a big dog and so that is where the reporters are looking. Or that due to a lack of time or investigative reporting people have not looked into other electronics factories associated with other companies.
It can't be that Apple is only one of the bad guys in the picture and happens to be the easiest to expose or the largest target because of its name and stock price.
It has to be that Apple is bad, HP is good, and everyone else (comonly known as "Other companies") are doing just fine because there has not been a massive effort made to show how awful the conditions are in those factories.
Just like all of our food is harvested by well paid, well trained, individuals who are there of their own free will.
