Rating True Like this fact check? Reporting On November 19 2019, a purported Fox News Treason for the Season chyron was shared to two subreddits, r/CrappyDesign and r/theyknew : Treason for the season! from CrappyDesign Both posts were titled Treason for the season!; neither offered any contextual information about when the graphic purportedly aired or whether or not it was a fabricated image. The image was not new, however, having appeared in the Facebook group Christians Against Trump in December 2018. The image also appeared on the subreddit r/dontdeadopeninside on December 12 2017, Imgur one day earlier (Treason for the Season — Fox News accidentally gets a headline correct), and in a meme format on r/PrequelMemes on December 10 2017: Florida is where wokes go to die...

Additional information appeared alongside the clip: Poll: Most Americans want Jesus back in Christmas Dec. 10, 2017 – 3:05 – Father Jonathan Morris reacts on ‘Fox & Friends.’ That video was three minutes and six seconds long, and the tReason for the Season chyron appeared onscreen between 0:17 and 0:20: Immediately thereafter, the Fox News segment displayed a polling graphic. At the top, it asked should Christmas be more about Jesus or more about Santa Claus? The first of three answers, at 68 percent, was more about Jesus, with 18 percent answering more about Santa, and 14 percent responding not sure: The segment then cut to a discussion with a guest, Catholic priest Jonathan Morris. A frequent commentator on Fox News, Morris requested dispensation to leave the priesthood in 2019. As the clip demonstrated, Fox News’ tReason for the Season graphic was authentic and unaltered by meme-makers. It originally aired on December 10 2017 during that day’s Fox & Friends, as part of a larger segment on public opinion about whether Christmas was becoming too secular, and whether poll respondents believed Christmas ought to be more about Jesus or more about Santa, with 68 percent of those polled voting for Jesus, and 18 percent Santa Claus.
