The OP was suggesting that people should accuse the Beatles of being apples like people accused Stevie of being a witch because of the name of their publishing company. It's like comparing apples to oranges, or in this case apples to witches. I'm just pointing out the difference between the two scenarios. If Stevie wore a suit and tie and sang songs about 18 wheelers, but named her publishing company Welsh Witch and put a picture of a broomstick on her albums, they wouldn't have called her a witch. The difference between the Beatles having Apple publishing (for one a person can't be an apple, but can be a witch) is Stevie embraced the stereotype, and therefore perpetuated the rumors at the same time she denied them.
