Here's a story that will surely ignite furious debate - Dallas-based Neiman Marcus quietly rebrands its annual "Christmas Book" as the "Holiday Book," removing the word "Christmas" from its cover.

The change has frustrated some employees, who feel the decision reflects the company’s "woke" politics.

Many at the Dallas headquarters only learned of the rebrand through the media and point to CEO Geoffroy van Raemdonck as prioritizing diversity initiatives over business results.

Despite Neiman Marcus defending the change as inclusive, some employees worry about the company's future, especially with an acquisition by HBC set to close soon.
