From infojunkies on LJ, further proof that Walmart is the devil:

If you're looking to buy a copy of Robert Greenwald's superb documentary, "Uncovered: The Whole Truth About the Iraq War," don't go to your local Wal-Mart. Anderson Merchandising, the company that picks the movies that are sold in the retail chain, has told the distributor of the movie that the film is inappropriate for Wal-Mart.

Movies considered appropriate for Wal-Mart:

* Leni Riefenstahl's Triumph of the Will (Leni Riefenstahl is well known in film history, but was also a poster girl for the Nazi party. This film is Nazi propoganda.)
* D.W. Griffith's Birth of a Nation (This is a film about the South during the Civil War. It glorifies and makes heroes of the KKK.)
