A Kentucky radio station held a two hour "Baby it's Cold Outside' marathon to stick it to the non-binary types.
El Zoro News has gives us the skinny:
"
"Other radio stations reevaluated the song after WDOK Christmas 102.1 took it off the air, but WAKY in Elizabethtown didn't even briefly consider pulling it. Instead, the station decided to embrace the 1944 song, written by Frank Loesser, and some of the other versions that followed.
"I'm not sure why it's controversial," Joe Fredele, director of programming for WAKY, told WLKY. "We've played this song for years, you know, this song is older than WAKY is. It's almost 70 years old."
Kentuckians were able to listen to "Baby, It's Cold Outside" on WAKY from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. Sunday. The station played five different versions of the tune, WLKY reports."
End excerpt.
Good for them!
Jack Kemp forwards the same story from Newsweek.
