Leadership

Sadly, its pretty cut and dry. Either the media and plaintiffs are lying or the media and plaintiffs are telling the truth. If the allegations are false then it would behoove you/HR/Walmart-upper-management to seek justice/lawsuits so as not to sully Walmart's name. If the alleg's are true, then I - in a leadership role - would see what could be done to rectify the matter.
And while the question was posed in this type of forum, I did not expect you to "answer" as such, and silence would be okay, as obviously, someone in your position has to vet positions and statements carefully. But - I was hoping that you'd hear the concern and maybe it will come up later on your agenda.
