If FOX News doesn't stop aiding the liberal secularist attacks on Christmas, RealTeen at StopTheACLU plans to launch a boycott of FOX News beginning Saturday.

Since other blogs are getting on-board, I will make an official announcement Saturday Night at 7:30 EST calling for a boycott if FOX News doesn't change this. We specifically want the words "Holiday Ornament" and “Holiday Tree” changed in the description to "Christmas Ornament" and "Christmas Tree".

I am hereby announcing my intent to launch a massive e-mail campaign against FOX News. The only reason I’m not calling for a boycott of their network immediately is because I already don’t watch the other networks, and I do need some news to watch on TV.

Because of this, and I’m calling for other blogs covering the War on Christmas to join me, I’m starting an e-mail campaign towards FOX, and unless things change, I will call for a boycott of their network Saturday Night. While I understand I don't have the necessary readership or support to influence such a campaign, I am hoping other conservatives pick up on this. We cannot abandon our principles just because FOX is the only non-liberal Cable News Station.

Buy war bonds. The War On Christmas just drank a soda pop! RealTeen was responding to a post earlier today from Media Matters.

Despite O'Reilly's specific criticism of those who use the term "holiday tree" instead of "Christmas tree," an O'Reilly Factor ornament for sale at the Fox News store features this tagline: "Put your holiday tree in 'The No Spin Zone' with this silver glass 'O'Reilly Factor' ornament."

UPDATE 11:49: FOX News has changed the site to properly acknowledge the birth of Jesus, but...

Fox has changed the “Holiday Ornaments” to Christmas Ornaments. Now if they can just fix that dang “Holiday Tree”. Our deadline still stands, but unless they turn a deaf ear, they should be changing it.

Real Teen is lobbying bloggers to call for a boycott of the Fox News Channel if they don't change the wording from holiday tree and holiday ornament to Christmas tree and Christmas ornament. The boycott will start on Saturday, December 3, 2005 at 1930 EDT. [Fox News Holiday Ornaments? - Backcountry Conservative - 11-30-05]

Don't forget about that ding dang darned it "Holiday Ideas." Hello. Wasn't Jesus born?
