Wal-Mart Watch In Depth
The inaugural issue of Wal-Mart Watch’s issue brief, In Depth, focuses on gender discrimination at Wal-Mart and the massive class action lawsuit female employees are waging against the company.
From the cover story:
On February 6, 2007, The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, ruled that Wal-Mart must face a class action lawsuit of 1.6 million female workers who are alleging that they were discriminated against in pay and promotions.
An overview of gender discrimination at Wal-Mart, an interview with one of the lead plaintiffs in the landmark case Dukes v. Wal-Mart, news reports and facts about discrimination at Wal-Mart are just some of the items included in this first issue.

What a gross waste of money for the union workers, whose dues help support this site. Read the report, what is new?

I would like to see the women win.
I believe that it is long passed time that Wal-Mart
take responsibility for it’s own mistakes, not only
in the Dukes gender discrimination case, but
also in any, and all other, types of legal cases
against this corporation.
