Hurricane Retreats From War On Christmas
 |
The Inquirer's Michael Klein reported Tuesday that Schwartz refused to read a promo about Santa before his newscast because he's Jewish. This pissed all the Christians off, with Santa, of course, being the chief honoree of Christmas.
But Tuesday night, Schwartz led off his weather forecasts at 6 and 11 p.m. by raising the white flag:
He labeled the report as "absolutely untrue" and "apologized" that "some of us were left with the impression" that he has anything against the holidays. He mentioned that Christmas symbols have been part of his reports and urged viewers to have a merry Christmas, a happy Hanukkah and a joyous Kwanzaa.
Hmm. He labeled the report absolutely untrue, yet he apologized! Looks like Schwartz has been defeated in the War on Christmas. Santa must be proud.
