You can find a public copy of the article at MSN Money, Link Text"Inside Wal-Mart's 'Threat Research Operation." (April 5, 2007)
A article on Gabbard by the same authors is public at the WSJ: Link Text"Fired Wal-Mart Worker Speaks Out" by Ann Zimmerman and Gary McWilliams (March 8, p.B3)
Gabbard was recording the calls, he says, because he felt he felt pressured to uncover who was leaking information embarrasing to the company to outsiders. He and his supervisor, Jason Hamilton, were fired after Gabbard and his supervisor were dismissed this week after the U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Arkansas told Wal-Mart he was investigating possible wiretapping law violations.
Also,by the same authors, Link Text"Wal-Mart's Firing Of a Security Aide Bites the Firm Back," (April 9, 2007; p.A1)
It's fascinatingly twisted to read about the NAEA and their hiring of the swift boat PR firm. Their leadership is equally as repulsive. There's another post up about NAEA's leadership on RH Reality Check about this at http://www.rhrealitycheck.org/blog/2007/04/09/abstinence-only-abstaining-from-ethics-while-imposing-morality.
The link to the original story on RH Reality Check isn't right on this story. Here's the corrected link:

and he'd be a Tel -- er...Telebuffie.

The link in the original post is now corrected; it was simply too long to fit in the "Spin of the Day" format.
