MASSACHUSETS -- A Teletubbie with a terrible message has a mother in Massachusetts shocked and angry.

The Tinky Winky doll was a gift for a 2-year-old's birthday.

It says he has a gun and then laughs.

The manufacturers of Teletubbies recalled the dolls six years ago because other dolls were saying bad messages.

They say this doll was either resold or somehow slipped through the cracks of the recall.

The company is sending a new Tinky Winky to the little boy.
