If it's true that they simply didn't fill out the survey, I'm disappointed in the way the NAACP handled it. They shouldn't give an F and move on, they should put that information is not given.

Sure, then boycott, protest whatever. But don't make it sound like Target is failing to hire black/advertise in their neighborhoods etc just that they aren't willing to share that information with the NAACP.

Well from the article you posted, the information is out there that Target refused to provide the information....

And no, they don't have to fill out the questionaire if they choose not to do so.

I wouldn't worry about Target... I'm sure they will respond in what they think is their best interest in light of a possible "boycott."

Wikipedia's article said that they actually rated Target with 2 Fs and a D- over the past 3 years.. I assume for NOT filling out the survey...

That's the part I don't like.

I don't know if it was the first article i posted or another I read that said several other stores didn't respond including Sears and Kohls.

It's all business to me. If Target thinks this will hurt their business they'll do something different. If not, they won't.

Well I don't really agree with much of what the NAACP does, but if they merely said "We can't speak on Target, they did not respond to the survey," I think that would be fine. However, I don't like the situation they try and create where companies and schools are basically forced to answer to the NAACP.
