(CTVNEWS.CA) — Sears and Amazon.com have pulled a ring emblazoned with a swastika from their online stores after the Nazi-linked symbol sparked outrage on social media.
Sears apologized for the item on Tuesday and removed it from its catalogue. The company says the ring was a “third party marketplace item” that violated its guidelines.
The Sears Twitter account tweeted individual responses to swastika criticism Monday night and again on Tuesday morning.
