Wal-Mart removes anti-Semitic publication from its online catalogue

23 Sep 2004

The US supermarket chain will remove the notorious book "The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion" from its Internet shop "www.Walmart.com", after receiving "significant customer feedback." In a letter to the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), Wal-Mart said that it would no longer carry the book. The ADL had informed the retailer that on the Wal-Mart website, it was suggested that the book was not a forgery. ADL director Abraham Foxman praised the decision, saying that Wal-Mart has shown great corporate responsibility by listening and responding to the concerns of customers.
