Wal-mart: Helpless victim of dastardly monopoly

Filed Under Commentary | Leave a Comment

Poor Wal-Mart. The company with an internal economy larger than all of Ireland is moaning that it isn’t big enough to compete with a UK grocer. In fact, Wal-Mart has called for an antitrust investigation of U.K. chain Tesco, arguing that it has too large a share of the U.K. grocery market. What’s the matter, Wal-Mart? Afraid of a little competition? Maybe Wal-Mart should use its profits to form a standing army to invade stores that dare to sell anything on Wal-Mart’s shelves. (Thanks, Iain)…

NGLTF response to a New York Times article about a study of bisexuality

Filed Under Commentary | Leave a Comment

The National Gay and Lesbian Task Force responded with outrage to an article in the New York Times about a study of genital arousal patterns in self-identified bisexuals. NGLTF said, “The article, which concludes that the study ‘casts doubt on whether true bisexuality exists, at least in men,’ fails to note several serious and obvious questions about the study’s methodology and underlying premises; fails to report the serious controversies that have plagued one of the study’s authors in the past; misstates some of the study’s conclusions; and fails to reflect the views of any leaders in the bisexual community.”
