REPORT: Target To Meet With Boycott Organizers

May 5, 2016 Business, Hate Groups, Religion

According to a tweet issued today by Fox Business, Target officials have agreed to meet with the American Family Association, the anti-LGBT hate group behind the boycott. Fox attributes that news to notorious liar Todd Starnes and no independent confirmation of this meeting can be found at this writing. Last week a Target spokesperson declared that the company was “standing firm” behind its transgender policy. The AFA claims that over 1.1 million have signed their boycott petition, but multiple outlets have noted that the petition form allows an infinite number of submissions from the same IP address.
