So this is what’s “special” about the Macy’s parade?
Not the slime “River to the sea” dorks protesting?
And is there anyone out there that still respects the media?
The media doesn't need to care whether we respect them. As long as we're willing to pay them for the privilege of being entertained by them, they'll make the money they need to keep pushing their agenda.
It is merely a tradition that has been done every year for the past 99 years. No one really knows how to break such a meaningless habit...
