Wal-Mart stops selling kids CD with profanities

AP, Dec 30, 2010 6:00 pm PST
Christina Wilson was getting her 4-year-old son up from a nap and bringing him in to listen to a compact disc his grandparents had given him for Christmas when her husband stopped her — he thought he heard something inappropriate.

Then Wilson listened to the "Kids Favorites" CD out of her son Caiden's earshot and heard the profanity.

"It was a shock," she said.

Wilson said that on Tuesday she contacted the Wal-Mart store in South Bend where her in-laws had bought the CD to let them know about the lyrics. Wal-Mart Stores Inc. spokeswoman Melissa Hill said the company had already started pulling the CDs from its shelves nationwide on Monday after a supplier notified it about a problem with the CD.
