I’ve seen that video before on youtube.  I’m kind of curious what exactly they were going for with that deal.  I actually had assumed it was from one of the more recent meeting when they were pushing to cater to the female customers, but since it said it was from 1995 that was clearly not the case.  Personally I don’t see what the big deal is.  It looked really stupid, but I don’t think that that was sexist or anything neccessarily, depending on the context, which we don’t know.  It just makes me really not want to ever have to go to any type of annual meeting with Walmart, but that was already the case since they are one giant pep rally, and even though I played sports in high school I always thought they were stupid back then, and now that I am older I find that whole atmosphere even more ridiculous, but I guess some people enjoy that sort of thing.

Wal-Mart Watch debuts a new video....

Um, I posted that in the High Fashion thread a couple of weeks ago. (I even provided the embed code:o)

I don’t mind that the Media Team doesn’t read the comments, I don’t read ‘em all either but I do wish they would tighten up on the spam a little!
