Target Decides Murder is Not Cool
Target pulled a cd carrying case with the image of Che Guevara, according to Reuters:
Target had touted a music disc carrying case for Che admirers emblazoned with the Argentine-born guerrilla’s iconic 1960 portrait by Alberto Diaz, or "Korda." A set of small earphones was superimposed on the image, suggesting he was tuned in to an iPod or other music player.
But my favorite quote comes from someone with a little bit of common sense about this subject: "What next? Hitler backpacks? Pol Pot cookware? Pinochet pantyhose?" wrote Investor’s Business Daily in an editorial earlier this month, citing the Guevara case as a model of "tyrant-chic."
