This statement is false. Susie writes about "unethical labor practices" which she objects to morally. This indicates that Susie finds most subcontracting methods to be "wrong" or "morally suspect". Susie's concern for Delavigne is not only financial, but moral as well.
This is a true statement. Susie writes that cheap labor and exploitation can lead to "class-action suits being brought against the companies". A class-action suit is a legal procedure in which a group of individuals with a claim against a company join together as plaintiffs in a single suit. Susie also writes about "boycotts", referring to the public abstaining from buying or using certain products as an expression of protest.
This statement is true. Susie writes that if Delavigne's subcontracting practices "get into the open", the company will have problems. To "get (out) into the open" is an expression which means to "become known" or to "become public knowledge". Though Susie isn't sure whether Delavigne is using illegal labor practices, one of her concerns is the public's reaction to this possibility.
This statement is false. Susie writes that she "stumbled across" this article. "To stumble across (an object)" is to find it by chance, without looking for it or intending to find it.
