WM's new site, Wal-Mart for Teachers, slipped in under my radar.
I think the NEA attempt to have teachers boycott Wal-Mart is a flop and a miserable public relations failure: not because the boycott has failed -- they expected it to fail -- but because a frenzy just never developed.
Failure or not, the call for a boycott was countered by Wal-Mart with a web site that permits teachers to speak for themselves, by providing details about Wal-Mart's philanthropy, and making it easy to send an original letter to the editor of local newspapers.
Nice. (Though telling readers which papers it is submitted to might be helpful).
