TV Land Pulls Dukes of Hazzard Reruns

Confederate flag controversy hits the General Lee

Good Ol' Boys Bo and Luke Duke—and the confederate flag atop their beloved General Lee—won't be "making their way" on TV Land any longer. The cable network has pulled The Dukes of Hazzard reruns from its schedule.

The decision Monday comes as companies have begun distancing themselves from the Confederate flag following the racially motivated murder last month of nine members of a black Charleston, S.C., church. 

While TV Land yanked The Dukes of Hazzard because of the flag, it hasn't decided whether or not the move is permanent, according to a source.
