Silent Night, the most beautiful Christmas carol ever written and it is playing in the background while we watch "LIV" getting an abortion on TV. Something is very wrong.
TV shows choose the music they do to convey a message and the goal is to give additional meaning to the event the viewer is observing. I would love to know the rationale behind behind that choice.

I'm trying to figure out why someone took the time to post this thread? Is it because of abortion? Some christmas song? What am I supposed to be offended about?
I would assume the song was picked to make the moment seem more poignant, like the baby is silent now kind of thing. If I were a young girl debating an abortion, watching that scene with that song would have made me feel emotional and less likely to go get one. A song that did not engender any sort of emotional response to me would have been much worse to me.

I have one of the fancy new televisions with an 'OFF' button. It also has this cool feature that allows me to watch other channels, stream other content, and so forth. All this cutting edge technology allows me to watch what I want to watch and not watch what I don't want to watch.
I mean, I could just complain about reality shows and the televangelists and sports and the infotainment masquerading as news - but instead, I just don't watch those things.
Someone produced content. You tuned in.
That's on you.

I guess it's politically incorrect to play that song during the depiction of an abortion.
