Returning to the town that Walmart left behind
For nearly 20 years retailers in downtown Winnsboro, South Carolina struggled to compete with Walmart's cheap products and one-stop shopping.

NewsHour Weekend's Christopher Booker returned to see what life after Walmart is like for the small American town.
