- Herbalife (HLF +1.5%) critic Julie Contreras of the League of United Latin American Citizens takes exception to Federal Trade Commission Chairwoman Edith Ramirez's plan to share the stage with Herbalife compliance chief Pamela Jones Harbour tomorrow at a meeting of the American Bar Association. Ms. Ramirez is scheduled to speak after Ms. Harbour.
- Ms. Contreras is miffed because Ms. Ramirez bowed out of an event she organized after learning that short seller Bill Ackman was on the docket to speak. She says, "It's like re-victimizing the victims to know that the top law enforcement official is sitting at the table with the alleged perpetrator."
- In any event, the NY Post loves to stir up controversy.
