ST. PAUL, Minn. — A new TV ad from the liberal advocacy group MoveOn.org goes after Target Corp. for making a political campaign donation in Minnesota.
A spokeswoman said Tuesday, Aug. 17 that the group will spend $35,000 to air the ad for a week on three networks in Minnesota and on the MSNBC cable channel nationally.
The ad urges consumers to boycott the retail chain for getting involved in elections.
Minneapolis-based Target has faced a backlash from gay rights groups and liberals after giving $150,000 to a business-oriented political fund supporting Republican gubernatorial candidate Tom Emmer in Minnesota.
The company has apologized for the donation and promised to carefully review future political giving.

This ad is disappointing. No facts no details just the same kind of misinformation the right wing spouts, only it’s left wing. What happened to facts and critical thinking? Oh yea we are in America, I forgot.
