Explaining Black Friday to kids:
"So the Americans. They don't have Boxing Day. In fact they don't take Christmas week off like we do. Their big holiday is Thanksgiving, which they hold a month late, at a weird time for a harvest festival. The next day is their Boxing Day, which we have to honour."

I'd say music brings more depth from fans generally. Especially readers of Pitchfork. General comments on general news stories ... nope.
