In a longish and surprizingly brutal description of a recent Target stockholders meeting in Wisconsin, NYTimes financial columnist Joe Nocera...rips a new one... for William Ackman, manager of Pershing Square Capital.
Nocera ridicules Ackman's use of quotes from JFK and Martin Luther King, as well as a tear Ackman allegedly shed at the meeting.
Read it... and be amazed... as Joe Nocera unleases his full monty here:

Perhaps as a reaction to Ackman's attacks...TARGET...finally has abandoned those inane full-page newspaper ads about nothing... as seen in the NYTimes...and, today, Sunday, ran an ad asking for help: suggestions...more@target.com/
