The Age of Wal-Mart

CNBC aired their profile of the world's largest retailer, The Age of Wal-Mart, on at least two occasions this weekend and I was able to catch a few segments. I didn't see it in its entirety, but I was impressed with the reporting I did see. CEO Lee Scott was featured prominently in the program and was asked tough questions concerning the negatives associated with Wal-Mart. In particular, Scott was asked to comment on such issues as public unrest regarding Wal-Mart growth, class actions claiming discrimination, and the employee health plan.

It wasn't a puff piece and I didn't hear any softball questions. The program has been added to the Interested-Participant Recommended Viewing List. Catch it if possible.
