Sam Walton 1115_Voices.indd 2 10/12/15 10:29 AM Voices / Welcome FROM THE EDITORS Why We’re Thankful This time of year is about recognizing the good in our lives and the things we’re thankful for. That’s why so much of this issue focuses on veterans and volunteers—we’re thankful for those whose service to others makes the world a better place. Of course, this issue also offers advice to help you help customers—because exceptional service can make customers’ lives better, too. THE EDITORS Remembering Ferold Ferold Arend, Walmart’s first corporate president and chief operating officer, passed away on Oct. 8, 2015, at the age of 90. Ferold started working for Sam Walton in 1966, when only a handful of Walmart stores existed. By the time he retired in 1982, there were more than 500. In his time at Walmart, Ferold streamlined store operations and frequently spoke on the importance of personal integrity. His Walmart World column, which often appeared alongside Sam’s, held invaluable teachings for all Walmart associates. His role in Walmart’s success was recognized by Sam, who said, in 1978, “I don’t know of anyone who has contributed more toward our total success as a retail company than Ferold Arend.” Ferold’s name will live on as part of Walmart through The Walmart Museum, home of the Ferold Arend Studio, which is used for interviews with those who have shaped our company’s history and for public radio broadcasts in Northwest Arkansas.

Our call-ins were terrible, but I’d get in there, throw freight, and talk to the associates. They saw me out there and didn’t want me to have to throw twice as much, and the call-ins decreased.

  • Documenting the Documentary Grant.Indd 522 10/3/13 10:08 AM Borat 523
    Chapter 31 Cultural Learnings of Borat for Make Benefit Glorious Study of Documentary Leshu Torchin Genre designations can reflect cultural understandings of boundaries between perception and reality, or more aptly, distinctions between ac- cepted truths and fictions, or even between right and wrong. Borat: Cul- tural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan (Larry Charles, 2006) challenges cultural assumptions by challenging our generic assumptions. The continuing struggle to define the film reflected charged territory of categorization, as if locating the genre would secure the meaning and the implications of Borat. Most efforts to categorize it focused on the humor, referring to it as mockumentary and comedy. But such classifications do not account for how Borat Sagdiyev (Sacha Baron Cohen) interacts with people onscreen or for Baron Cohen’s own claims that these encounters produce significant information about the world. Fictional genres always bear some degree of indexical relationship to the lived world (Sobchack), and that relationship only intensifies in a tradi- tional documentary. Borat, however, confuses these genres: a fictional TV host steps out of the mock travelogue on his fictional hometown and steps into a journey through a real America. The indexical relationship between the screen world and the real world varies, then, with almost every scene, sometimes working as fiction, sometimes as documentary, sometimes as mockumentary. In doing so, the film challenges the cultural assumptions that inhere to expectations of genre, playing with the ways the West (for 13500-Documenting the Documentary_Grant.indd 522 10/3/13 10:08 AM Borat 523 lack of a better shorthand) has mapped the world within the ostensibly rational discourses of nonfiction.

She’s a familiar voice in the market with 22 years of history at a crosstown station. He’s a Nashville native who grew up around the city’s music scene and has connections in the sports world. Even though neither has worked at a country station before coming to WUSN, they appear to have all the elements for success — comfort level, lifestyle music. It’s all there. Real life doesn’t always play out like planned scenarios. This time, though, things seem to be going okay.
