Here’s the real deal on why there was Japaneses cartoon porn on Walmart.com, much of it of the homosexual male, or, as its known to connoisseurs,”yaoi” variety.

Walmart imports huge databases of books from wholesalers. This database included all the Diamond Book Distributors titles. When someone orders from Walmart, the wholesaler gets the books from Diamond and sends them to the Walmart fulfillment place.

According to Ku-Yu Liang of of Diamond Book Distributors, “There are probably thousands of titles in that database that could potentially offend Wal-Mart’s management — they just don’t have any idea of what’s there.”

By the by, we asked for a response from Target, which sold some of the same titles, and they never responded because they’re too busy buying Coach counterfeits in bulk. — BEN POPKEN
