I thought Fox 10 has dispensed with the offensive and demeaning "holiday lights" crap. Apparently, someone failed to notify your pandering, liberal story editor. Please let this misguided person know that the ONLY holiday for which people decorate their houses is CHRISTMAS. Please stop offending the majority of your viewers. These are CHRISTMAS lights. Thank you.

- A lot of you may have put up holiday lights to get more into the spirit. But while they look great, you need to be careful when you have them up... especially outside. FOX 10's Marc Martinez talked with one expert, who has some advice on how to keep you and your family safe

It was only changed in one spot to pacify some of the public. They aren't brave enough to be the only news station to put Merry Christmas in print. Why don't they put the issue to the public and be the first to abide by their response. That would make a great poll question.

Do you want your favorite news station to use and say Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays?

CHRISTMAS LIGHTS are wonderful! They're are cheerful, happy and they speak of the gloriousness of the CHRISTMAS season.

CS... get over yourself and find something else to whine about. Good grief... all you do is piss and moan about EVERYTHING. STFU already. Do you really think your bitching made the people at Fox change anything? You are really thick if you do. By the way... love your pic... it really tells me a lot about you and sums your existence!!!

Same goes for you Grn.... get over yourself. Nothing was changed because of the public!!! And just so you know... Happy Holidays is sometihng people start saying before Thanksgiving and through New Year's Day. Merry Christmas is for one friggin day. You're such a retard!!!

Christmas lights need to be called, Christmas lights. We dont call Halloween lights holiday lights.....but the term "Happy holidays" is used in reference to all the holidays that are around the same time of yr. starting with Thanksgiving. I think there are two different things going on here.
I think that if an decoration is used solely for Christmas, than the term Christmas should be used...but if youre just wishing someone a happy holiday season, than I think Happy Holidays is just fine.

Contrary to RetardedChimp's contention, no one says "happy holidays" in reference to Thanksgiving. "Happy holidays" begins in December and is a liberal political correctism designed to be substituted for the word "Christmas."

"Happy holidays" songs talk about sleigh bells, trees, etc. That excludes Thanksgiving, New Years, Martin Luther King Day, and Groundhog Day.

Merchants like KMart claim they use "happy holidays" so "none of their guests will feel excluded at this time of year." I have bad news for them: 99% of their "guests" who are spending billions of dollars in their stores are buying for CHRISTMAS.

Regardless, atheists don't decorate their houses for Charles Darwin's birthday. Jewish people don't decorate their houses for Channukah. Blacks don't string lights all over their houses for the racist celebration of Kwanzaa.

The ONLY holiday for which people decorate their houses with lights is Christmas. It's not too much to ask that the wishy-washy liberals in the media at least note that fact.

As for "the holiday season", there is only ONE traditional national holiday in the month of December. That holiday is CHRISTMAS. "Happy holidays" was invented by spineless liberals who are scared to death of "offending" atheists, Muslims, and racists by saying "Merry Christmas."
