For years, Wal-Mart has been plagued by bad press. Now it has to fend off a Wall Street Journal report that it's been politically bullying its employees. ANP headed over to a Wal-Mart in Virginia to ask shoppers what they think.

I will shop at any other store than Walmart. I am from a long line of union workers in my family. They are run by bad, bad people.

But it will keep the Walton's from squeezing more money from their employee's than they already do.

I will never step in one of their stores. Never.
