The insanity continues. CNN reporter MJ Lee is reporting that Walmart, Amazon, Ebay and Sears are all no longer selling the Confederate flag and associated merchandise:

That's now Amazon, Walmart, eBay and Sears — stores where you won't be able to buy the Confederate flag

Just remember what we pointed out yesterday in a CNN article:
Walmart’s statement came in response to a CNN inquiry Monday. In addition to Walmart, CNN asked Amazon and eBay whether they would remove Confederate flag merchandise from their sites. Neither company responded to repeated requests for comment.
Of course that was yesterday. Now they are all caving to CNN left and right.
