but haven't seen it yet.

A friend of mine called me to ask if I've seen Fox's Christmas message on the air - and of course I hadn't cause to me the station doesn't exist.

So she had me turn it on and it seems that it comes once an hour on the half hour break.

My friend was right when she noted that it was "in your face" religious - with quoted scripture to boot. The one I saw wasn't the one she referred to so it seems there are a few that are rotated.

Obviously it caters to religious right and is an open message to all viewers. Personally speaking I don't care but I did see her point and agreed that those spots went way beyond any other station's Christmas/holiday message to their viewers.

However, with Hannity's tirade about schools removing Christmas and now even Santa (which I think is insane), I can see how this serves to further divide the "red" and the "blue" which is never a good thing and dangerous when carried to the extreme.
