TYT: Target Goes Gender Neutral, Fox News Freaks



Target has now eliminated gender-targeted ads and signage, and "Fox and Friends” is not happy. John Iadarola (Think Tank) and Jimmy Dore (The Jimmy Dore Show Podcast), hosts of the The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

Last week, the mega-retailer announced on its blog, A Bullseye View, that it will no longer have signs with "boy" and "girl" qualifiers in certain departments, like toys and bedding.

Critics took to Twitter to speak out against Target's upcoming "androgynous signs," arguing that the changes will make it harder for shoppers to find what they're looking for. Some customers said they will no longer shop at Target.”*
