I've been remiss in linking to Mad Anthony's superb takedown of the view that Wal-Mart sales were off because people are responding to anti-WM activism. Libertarian Girl thinks most WM shoppers don't even realize there's a controversy...
What's interesting is that WM has chosen to respond to its antagonists, indicating that an image problem could yield lower sales. But anecdotal evidence suggests that people really don't care about the controversy, even if they know about it...
