** Man who waved Confederate flag at removal of KKK founder's remains under investigation. (Memphis, Tennessee. Newsweek magazine. Looks like Newsweek would know that Confederate is a proper name. Of course, no mention was made of Memphis' highly questionable action to get rid of the monument in the first place. Plus, the SCV is paying for the removal and that should have been paid for by those who want it gone.)
** 'It was the best decision': Mayor Woodfin reflects on decision to remove confederate (Confederate) monument one year later. Birmingham, Alabama. Looks like WBRC 6 would know that Confederate is a proper name and should be capitalized. The mayor said the people were demonstrating and trying to pull the statue down, when they were actually rioting.)
** Jaguars to buy uniforms for four schools getting rid of confederate (Confederate) names. (Jacksonville, Florida, Jaguars NFL team. Looks like they would know that Confederate is a proper name and needs to be capitalized.)
** Fort Smith sued for flag removal; new state monuments law cited. (Arkansas)

** NC appeals court halts removal of Confederate monument. (Sad Asheville. The Vance monument.)
** Washington and Lee University to keep Confederate name. (Virginia. But they will change names on campus. Faculty members voted last July to change the name. Having college professors do any kind of judgement on the Confederacy is always bad. Let's just say they are more than a little bit prejudiced.)
