Robert Greenwald’s Latest

I was perusing Wakeup Walmart when I read this from Robert Greenwald:

Titles are always a challenge. Outfoxed came in a breath of genius to my good friend Earl Katz, but usually it is tough going. And more so than usual with Wal-Mart. Let me explain…we were looking for something that framed the story, de-constructed Wal-Mart and drew attention, hence the subtitle — “The High Cost of Low Price.” However, in talking with George Lakoff, he wisely pointed out that people will primarily remember “low price.” Furthermore, even after weeks of discussion, when I started looking at the title in print and on the website, it doesn’t look like a movie title. So rather then compound the less then perfect title, back to the drawing board.

So he’s asking his blog readers for a title. Here’s my favorites so far:

• “A Wolf with Cheap Clothing: The Story of Walmart and the Employees who Pay Our Price.”
• “Engulf & Devour”
• “Mall-Warts.”
• “WalMart: The Junking of America”
• “Made in China”
• “Sam’s Dystopia: The Wal-Martization of the World”
• “WAL-MART: Always Low Wages. Always!”

Any suggestions?
