The Dukes of Hazzard has been pulled by TV Land over its use of the Confederate flag, which is displayed on the roof of the characters’ Dodge Charger, General Lee. The decision was made amid controversy surrounding the flag that has been ongoing since Dylann Roof, who was a supporter of the Confederacy, opened fire on the historic black AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina on June 17. Star of the hit 80s show John Schneider has since spoke out in a YouTube rant where he called the decision “an error.” We look at the story on the Lip News with Mark Sovel and Jose Marcelino Ortiz.
