Fox News picks up Rick Warren sermon

Pastor Rick Warren at Saddleback Church.One of the benefits of increased exposure is more opportunity to spread your message. President-Elect Obama chose Rick Warren to give the invocation at the Presidential Inauguration, so FOX News chose Rick Warren to broadcast four special airings of His Saddleback Church’s Christmas service, When God Changes Your Plans.

This is wrong on so many levels. First, it’s not news. But then again, few people accuse FOX News of broadcasting news these days. Second, it feels like Obama choice of Rick Warren is being exploited to deliver Warren’s anti-gay message to a wider audience. It feels so opportunistic, and wrong.

I can't say I'm surprised to learn of this. Like you suggest, the last thing I'd accuse Fox "News" of doing is news. I am even surprised it took them this long to resort to televangelism.

Thank you, Fox, for honoring Jesus on this day of His birth. It warmed my heart.
I didn't get to watch Rick Warren's Christmas Sermon on Fox. Does anyone know where I can download his sermon on the internet?
