But really, how do you get from the video -- which was clearly a prank -- to the thread title saying it is "Under attack" ? It is almost like you didn't get the joke.
Same tactic the tabs use to get people to read the story.

I think you and Fox News need a top-off of your humor tank.

Love them. We play their cd's every christmas.

How can you hear Bing Crosby croon that song and not go wow! It's like someone rubbing your eardrums with satin.

"White Christmas" is under attack by climate change, and this year climate change scored.

For sure. We don't know percentage of people said, "No," we don't know what number said yeas, nor do we know how many figured out it was a joke and just went with it.

And clearly this was not an "attack," but just a prank.

Never been a huge crooner fan. I also don't like Frank Sinatra or Dean Martin. Perry Como or Tony Bennett or Andy whats-his-name are tolerable.

I just heard it on the radio earlier this morning. I guess we've lost the "War on Christmas," yet again!
