NEW YORK - Target Corporation says it has pulled a CD carrying case bearing Ernesto "Che" Guevara's image after an outcry by critics.

The Marxist revolutionary has been labeled a murderer and totalitarian symbol.

Target had touted the case, emblazoned with the Argentine-born guerrilla's iconic 1960 portrait by Alberto Diaz, for music-loving Che admirers .

A set of earphones was superimposed on the image, suggesting he was tuned in to an iPod.
