“Baby It’s Cold Outside” RAPE!
Re: “Baby It’s Cold Outside” RAPE!
You must be pretty busy calling the stations that play main stream rap "babby".
New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

It's a completely secular song. It's barely a seasonal song. It's about as much of a Christmas song as Oh Hanukkah is. I won't miss it. Shouldn't the Barenaked Ladies doing Oh Hanukkah then also be controversial though?

Intentionally or not, this is the best radio PR stunt since the most recent "dihydrogen monoxide" dust-up, circa April 2013.
You can't buy this kind of publicity.

Re: “Baby It’s Cold Outside” RAPE!
The radio station in question is owned by Entercom, one of the big players like iHeart, Cumulus and many others. As those of you inside the business know, programming decisions in these companies are not made on a local level but higher up the corporate chain, by the consultant or corporate programming boss. Weekly, the PD's or Brand Managers, get the list of adds and drops to make and may get another list of a few tunes they can add at their discretion, depending on who the consultant or programming decision maker is. What I find interesting is that this station ran 2 polls, one on their Facebook page which clearly showed that 95 percent of those who responded had no issue with the song. The other poll, on their website, which kept the results hidden went the other way, or so we are told. I would bet a nice lunch that Entercom had every intention of dropping this song from day 1 but had to put on a "show". If memory serves this station is not that highly rated so the company used it to test the decision and to gain lots of free publicity for it which they have. I wonder if by week's end all Entercom stations will drop it or considering that the majority of publicity generated has been negative, if they will leave this as their only property to not play the song. If you go to various news sites, left and right leaning, and read the comments left by those who have chosen to leave one, you will see few if any positive comments. Facebook comments on various sharings of the story show nothing but negative comments and the majority left by women, who are the one's who should be most offended by this song. The old axiom any publicity is good publicity as long as the names are spelled right is hard at work here. Entercom wanted advertising they couldn't afford to buy and got it. Only time will tell if it will work for or against them. I do know a list of the station advertisers has been put together and a boycott of said businesses is being planned because of the decision. These hardly ever work, but it does show that despite what the station has said, this is not a popular decision. At my stations, requests for this tune have started coming in since the story broke. The public speaks....

High probability new batteries are to blame.
Your use of the phrase does heighten the audience's potential for an involuntary personal protein spill, though...
Meanwhile, don't rest until you've had the song expunged from the movie, Elf. You'll probably want to use a platform other than the Buzzboard going forward.

Re: “Baby It’s Cold Outside” RAPE!
Elf and every other radio station, don't forget sat rad, that continue to play it. The easiest way to go forward from here would be a national advertising campaign demanding the song be banned from everything. You have the money to pay for it right?
Re: “Baby It’s Cold Outside” RAPE!
I don't believe many people see anything threatening in the song. We're just being wayyyy to politically correct.

Considering the memes making fun of the situation that are starting to show up on social media, it appears the general public at large is having a good time poking fun at the people behind this decision. Maybe there is bad publicity after all.
Re: “Baby It’s Cold Outside” RAPE!
For LL, the only thing worse would be if the song was being sung by a cop.

Educated people understand the song was written in a different time and in the context of movie it is an innocent flirtation. Only warped minds think anything different. Yes, your mid is warped in ways that no one can fix. You keep saying we, what did you personally have to do with this station dropping the song? Simple question, can you possibly answer it directly? What did you do that made this station make the horrible decision it did. And why stop at one song? Those of the Jewish faith, Muslim and Jehovah's Witness faiths do not celebrate Christmas at all and could be offended by Christmas music so why not just get on your soapbox and ban it all since millions could be offended by any Christmas song.
