"This request was simply made by a staff member who was attempting to be sensitive to the celebrity guest, without considering the wider implications ... or consulting with her supervisor for guidance," Graham said in an e-mail to the newspaper.
That's it right there. That's the root of the problem. It's not that people are offended. I allege that the vast majority are not. It that some who are not in whatever group is affected, wants to show how "sensitive" and "aware" they are. IMO, they only show their own bigotry.

Hmmm..lets see...Neil Diamond...Jewish..recorded a Christmas album
Barry Manilow...Jewish...recorded a Christmas album
Barbra Streisand...Jewish...recorded a Christmas album.
Guess all the PC folk should take the hint....and not assume a person of a non Christian faith cannot enjoy Christmas music
