Evidence

However, when it came to the question of who was to follow Horkheimer to the west coast when and under what conditions, Lowenthal and Adorno, in spite of their submissiveness, could not avoid a sense of having been well and truly betrayed either. After a discussion with Pollock in September 1941, Lowenthal was left in tears because Pollock had told him about the unfriendly plans for his future in such an unfriendly way, and Adorno was very disturbed that everything had been left hanging in the air for months. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 285
