BREAKING NEWS: The Warehouse / Noel Leeming Pull all R18 Stock

[LordCrumb]

The Warehouse has announced it will take all R18 games and DVDs off its shelves at The Warehouse and Noel Leeming stores to reinforce its "family-friendly values".

Chief executive Mark Powell said the recently released Grand Theft Auto V, which contains graphic sex scenes and violence towards women from a first person perspective, had acted as a catalyst for its decision.

"We considered simply de-ranging this product, however that would require us to judge the merits of every R18 product on an ongoing basis, which we are not in a position to do, nor do we see as our role."

Powell said the decision was driven by increasing customer, community and team member feedback and he believed parents would receive it positively.

"It's simply the right thing to do for our brand," he said.

He said it would take around 48 hours to get rid of all R18 censored games and DVDs across the two retailers.

Any customer purchases already undertaken, for example online, would be honoured.

What the utter ****?
