Wal-Mart is reacting to the mounting criticisms aimed
at them! On November 1 the New York Times revealed
that there is now a Wal-Mart War Room made up of past
presidential advisors to strategize rapid PR responses
to attacks. The first major task they have is
responding to Robert Greenwald?s documentary. Don?t
miss this screening! We will announce other actions
for the week here!

activities during the week or to get involved with
independent journalism and media making as a new form
of political organizing.
