Christmas is censoring non Christmas stuff on the local telly...

Yes my news is worse than ever. A bunch of Ted Mack and the original amateurs attempting to do their versions of Christmas music. They should be on the Gong Show!

And what? No scary news about a local person killed or credit card fraud victim designed to make us feel insecure and ironically some will vote to re-elect the local GOP that did not succeed in preventing these things,

So ESPN to the rescue so I can see that half the teams won and half lost. But no! Their "news" is snow boarders for the full hour after fast forwarding. Sport or unintended suicide?

Last hope. The app called local news. Weather was first with just the facts, no scary words such as First WARNING weather to make us feel insecure, etc. But the "news" was 3 things to do in our area for Christmas.

Maybe they should note there are other faiths that do not worship the sun heading back towards its solstice. Plus tons of non-believers.

…who participate in whatever festivities happen around the time of the days starting to get longer.

Faith or no faith, it’s a human thing.

Can't wait until January, when everyone tosses it all out the window. Of course it all goes when shithead takes office.
