T-Mobile CEO tweets apology after comparing competitors to rapists
Outspoken exec John Legere said ‘sometimes I need a filter’ after people complained about his remarks.
@TMobile explain CEO Legere’s comments that compared corporate tactics to rape? Or you gonna play the silent game?

I hereby take back @TMobile‘s designation as greatest cell phone company ever until the CEO apologizes and/or resigns over his rape remarks

Some even asked rapper Macklemore, who has performed at T-Mobile events, to stop associating himself with the company.
Rape isn’t funny, @Macklemore, so why do you still stand by @JohnLegere and @TMobile? #Uncarrier5 http://t.co/wg9toF81HL
