It's kind of a weird article. I think it's OK for the parade broadcasters to not get too elaborate in their comments regarding the floats. No one is tuning in for that, and I think the most receptive viewers to such a message probably aren't watching anyway.
I've never watched the parade because even as a child, it was boring and felt like a commercial.

There are far more harmful traditions to mess with than blown up cartoon characters strolling through town once a year.
