Wal-Mart pulls T-shirt after blogger complains
From the Associated Press
Wal-Mart Stores Inc. is pulling a T-shirt emblazoned with skull and crossbones from its shelves after a Maryland blogger complained that the image was identical to a Nazi SS emblem from World War II.
Rick Rottman posted a picture of the shirt late last week next to an image of an insignia he said was used by the 3rd SS Division, a unit of Hitler’s Waffen SS.
Wal-Mart said it was not aware of the origins of the image until Rottman’s post appeared and was working quickly to remove the shirt from stores, spokesman David Tovar said.
