Dukes of Hazzard run off TV station
TV Land has dumped The Dukes of Hazzard.
The network is confirming that reruns of the 1980s action comedy, with its Confederate flag imagery, have been pulled from the schedule.
This marks the latest effort to banish the racially charged Stars and Bars from pop culture after various states began debating whether to remove the flag.
Warner Bros., which produced the series, last week halted production of toy replicas of the General Lee, the 1969 Dodge Charger stock car driven by Southern cousins Luke and Bo, played by Tom Wopat and John Schneider. The car features a Confederate flag on its roof.
