And once again it’s a Walmart setting the scene, with early holiday shoppers screaming and battling for discount cellphones at a store in Moultrie, Georgia. What’s more depressing here, watching these Black Friday shoppers tear at a plastic-wrapped crate of cellphones like vultures on a wildebeest, or having to watch the whole thing on a smartphone video filmed in portrait orientation?
