NBC Asks America for the Meaning of Christmas: 'Jesus' Didn't Make Their Cut
Media Research Center ^ | December 26, 2014 | Tim Graham

NBC Nightly News offered two stories on Christmas in their December 25 newscast, including a show-ender about “what Christmas means to me.” Substitute anchor Tamron Hall offered this introduction: “Finally, on this special night, a question: What does Christmas mean to you? Maybe it’s the presents, the lights, the music, or getting together with family. We put the question to people around the country and discovered once against that Christmas means something a little different to everyone.”

Somehow, this perfectly pleasant three-minute segment included lot of talk about family time and presents, and even someone saying “Happy Hanukkah,” but included no one uttering the name “Jesus.” No one defined Christmas as about Christ ...

You Freepers should look at this way ... if we went on about anything Christian for more than 30 seconds without ranting about money grubbing preachers, a pedophile coverup in the Vatican, bigoted treatment of gays, or unjust opposition to baby killing ... while praising Islam as the Religion of Peace ... then we're getting a lot better!

I guess it is the old adage: If you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all.

NBC is an atheistic commie outfit and has been since its founding in the 1920s by a Russian.

The meaning of CHRISTMAS is the word Christmas. It’s the first six letters of the word.

Perhaps not in 2014, but one day:

Phillipians 2: 9-11

"9 Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name,
10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
11 and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."

Surprised that Obama and Government Dependency did not top the list.

...and that would explain why we don’t watch NBC much.

Yep Sarnoff, the same guy that permitted the commie anthem, “The Internationale” to be played on his NBC network.

Why would a Christian watch or respond to any poll at NBC?

"The meaning of CHRISTMAS is the word Christmas. It’s the first six letters of the word."

It's the last three letters, too. We keep the Mass in Christmas.

When all is said and done, it’s Christ Mas.

It’s the celebration of Christ’s birth.

I’d like to see how you word a question so that Christ receives almost no mention at all on His birthday, at least the commemoration of it.

Next Obama birthday, let’s ask a question that makes sure Obama is left out of the meaning of the day. We’ll see how that floats in Leftist heaven...

The local elementary school had a short “Christ”mas program. . .everyone was there but Jesus. The sad part about it. . .I don’t think most of the kids or their parents missed Him.
