An award-winning, anti-Trump journalist with a verified Twitter account and over 200k followers publicly harassed a Massachusetts Target manager after she refused to sell him an electric toothbrush that a display ad priced at 1¢.

Last Friday, David Leavitt, whose Twitter bio boasts of bylines at CBS and Yahoo, attempted to purchase an Oral B Pro 5000 electric toothbrush for 1¢ even though the official price was $89.99. According to NBC News, the 1¢ number came from a display ad. When the store manager, Tori Perotti, refused to sell him the desired price for 1¢, he called the police and lamented about the situation on social media.
