What is the rush about Christmas?
It is only Nov. 6th it used to be that Christmas started after THANKSGIVING.
IMHO every one starts hanging Christmas stuff and playing Christmas music WAY too early.

As long as it doesn't start leapfrogging Halloween I'm ok with it.
 
From a local station perpective, many are wondering when our FM channel will flip. Many complain about the flip so early as I think it will happen this weekend, but there ratings are usually through the roof for that time period.

Because they've figured out it's something they can monetize regularly and the stores will keep pushing it until it starts to effect the bottom line. I'm one of those that can listen to Christmas music year round at various times if the mood suits me or I just need a jolly pick me up, but I agree I don't care to see the stores pushing everything until after Thanksgiving.
 
It used to be that way, and then stores started selling/decorating before Thanksgiving....and now it's to a point that Christmas and Halloween stuff shares shelves. :facepalm
 
Oh, and don't get me started on Black Friday now starting Thursday at 5:00PM, during family gathering time.
 
I agree with the several recent articles and stories that Black Friday is a thing of the past. Retailer goals are now to get the majority of your money BEFORE thanksgiving...good luck with that.

Ask and you shall receive! Not too sure about the channel numbers though.
