Episode #26: Dissecting White House Communications over President Trump's Health, Walmart's $20 million Discrimination Settlement, and US Militias - a podcast by Cam and Ewan

We debate Walmart's recent settlement of a class-action lawsuit claiming the company had discriminatory hiring practices because of a physical test used to screen candidates. Ewan looks at the thorny issues of candidate screening, what Walmart did wrong, and what other companies should be careful of during the hiring process.

US President Donald Trump's health is making headlines around the world, but communications from the White House have left a lot of questions unanswered. Cam dives into the chronology of events and looks at the performance of doctor Sean Conley, the president's physician, during media briefings.

Plus: the history of militias in the US and the widening education gap as a result of COVID-19.
