Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer Created for Ward Christmas

Chicago advertising writer Robert L May created Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer as a charity Christmas story in 1939 for Montgomery Ward. The tale, later set to music by Johnny Marks, boosted the department store's card distribution and publicized May, who drew inspiration from Rudolph’s unlikely hero arc.

Christian Date For Chris May Be Wrong

Moslem minister Aminullah Shin of Chicago claims a Christian date confusion around Christmas and the Gospel of Luke. He argues the Gospel supports a late year birth for Jesus and cites a specific Koran verse to challenge Mary’s annunciation. He contends Luke’s account places shepherds in cold Judean fields, implying a warmer season for the Nativity.
