Fox "news" screwup with "Christmas/Holiday."
What you see here people, is a classic case of CYA. :rofl:

Fox now selling "Christmas" ornaments for "Christmas" trees

One day after Media Matters for America noted that the Fox News online store labeled its ornaments "Holiday" ornaments -- including one with The O'Reilly Factor logo -- the items have been renamed "Christmas" ornaments, and references to "your holiday tree" now refer to "your Christmas tree."

2. I use the word Christmas.
To me it is a time to be with family, give gifts, and relax. In my mind it is a secular holiday. For those to which it is more, that is fine by me ...
