Walmart Drops T-Shirt Calling for Lynching of Journalists  
-----------------------------------------------------------

Walmart has stopped selling a T-shirt that advocates for the lynching of
journalists. The shirt, which was available in Walmart's online store,
read, "Rope. Tree. Journalist. SOME ASSEMBLY REQUIRED." The T-shirt made
headlines last year when a Reuters photographer captured images of a man
wearing it at a Donald Trump campaign rally in Minnesota two days before
the election.
