Clarify?

It states that the first Free People store opened in the 70s at the University of Pennsylvania. However, in the actual Free People article, it claims, "The first location opened at the Garden State Plaza shopping mall in Paramus, New Jersey, in 2002." Can someone who is knowledgeable on the subject clarify this discrepancy?

The confusion comes due to a name change. The first store Hayne opened was originally named "Free People," but he changed the name of that store, and the resulting chain, to Urban Outfitters. The article on the current stores named "Free People" refer to the third of Hayne's chains of stores.

The Philadelphia Weekly article I linked (version -- forgot to log in) addresses this as well as some other historical details. Haven't got time to add them to the article right now, but they're worthwhile. --Hurtstotouchfire (talk) 04:03, 18 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Information

He founded Urban Outfitters, Inc. in 1970. The first store was located on the campus of the University of Pennsylvania. Today, the company operates over 200 stores under three brands: Urban Outfitters, Free People, and Anthropologie. Ironically, the liberal tone of Free People and Urban Outfitters is a reflection of his more liberal early roots. However, Richard Hayne is one of the most conservative billionaires in America. Donating millions of dollars a year to anti-gay rights (legislators including former Senator and rabidly anti-gay Rick Santorum). He was also a staunch supporter of California’s Proposition 8, which passed in November of 2008 taking away the marriage rights of same-sex couples. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.111.64.250 (talk) 08:44, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Libelous material

This page needs to be monitored for libellous material as the person is a huge target for certain groups agendas. He is a high-reward person to tag and deface. Any kind of associations to conservative political candidates is not necessarily a wholesale endorsement of all views of that candidate. Just because Richard Hayne was talking to someone at a cocktail party does not mean that he endorses all that that person believes. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.169.45.226 (talk) 06:25, 16 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
