This is a casewhere one person has been a bit stupid, or perhaps was even just playing a joke on these santas. Either way, the company has made it clear that it's not their idea or policy.
So if you want to get into the news just make up something like this and start telling people off. Every tabloid newspaper and internet messageboard in the world will be reporting your words within days.
