Default The NBA's War on Christmas ?

... you got it ... from Faux Noize ...


Fox Accuses NBA Of Waging "War On Christmas"

December 23, 2010

Fox Accuses NBA Of Waging "War On Christmas" | Media Matters for America



You would think that by now, what with the "Happy Holidays" promos and its own "Holiday Party," Fox would just forget the whole "War on Christmas" war.

For years now, Fox has heavily promoted this idea that "secular progressives" are engaged in a so-called "war" on Christmas, declaring over and over that the holiday is "under attack."

In its efforts to continue this overhyped, manufactured non-controversy, the network has taken to misleading viewers and even has accused the Democrats of "waging their own War on Christmas."

When all that failed, Fox tried to rebrand the "War on Christmas" -- the "War on Christianity" -- except that facts, predictably, got in the way of that campaign. Today, Fox has a new culprit to go after for supposedly waging a War on Christmas.

It's attacking the NBA for scheduling five games on Christmas Day.

Dunno, couldn't get that to load from your link (might be an Adblock thing).


But I googled, it, and was right! 13 is the correct answer.


How many triangles?

Such facts would be?

Actually it's reporting Phil Jackson's dislike of the scheduling. Which I totally understand but if he doesn't like it, he can always quit.

Non-story here folks.
... depends on what the (real non-faux) *War on Christmas* is ... is ...
