From the article.

O'Reilly said,

In Dodgeville, Wisconsin, the Ridgewood Elementary School has changed the song Silent Night to Cold in the Night and forced the kids to sing the lyrics, "Cold in the night, No one in sight, Winter winds whirl and bite," to the tune of the original Silent Night.

O'Reilly was by no means the only conservative to repeat this story. During a Dec. 10 appearance on Fox News, Mathew Staver of the Liberty Counsel said the presentation at Ridgewood Elementary had "no balance here. They have no Christian Christmas carols."

As it turns out, the entire story is a fraud.

O'Reilly's really on a tear with the "War on Christmas". Here's another story about lies he's spreading. Plano ISD has asked for a retraction, but the lies are still on the Faux News website.

Plano schools angered over comment by Bill O'Reilly

PLANO, Texas - School officials want talk show host Bill O'Reilly to retract
his on-air comment about the district banning students from wearing red and green because the colors represent Christmas.

O'Reilly told the audience on his Fox News Channel show "The O'Reilly Factor" that a Plano school told students they couldn't wear red and green clothing. "That's flat-out fascism," he said during the broadcast.

The district, located in an affluent Dallas suburb, said in Wednesday's editions of The Dallas Morning News that it never has prohibited such clothing, and sent e-mails to parents and posted a statement on its Web site about the "false rumor."

"What vehicle do I have to say Bill O'Reilly is flat wrong?" said Richard Abernathy, an attorney for the school district.
