Thursday night on “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” the host presented the Fox News Channel version of “It’s a Wonderful Life.” Kimmel was making light of Fox anchor Megyn Kelly’s recent remarks that Santa Claus is indubitably and indisputably a white man.

Panelist Monica Crowley asserted that “you can’t take facts and then try to change them to fit some sort of a political agenda or a sensitively agenda.”

“You can’t?” quipped Kimmel, “I thought that was the Fox News business model.”

He then rolled the video for “It’s a Wonderful Life, the Fox News Version,” which featured capitalist baron Henry Potter as the hero and “draft-dodger” George Bailey as a bleeding heart commie who wants to stand in the way of commercial progress.
