GLAMorial Day????? How offensive!

[ Edited ]

I do realize that Memorial. Day weekend always has sales going on. But, to change the name of an important holiday to make it cutesy is very disrespectful, in my opinion. If they wanted to have a Memorial Day/weekend sale, fine, but don't mock the name of the holiday we are supposed to be giving thanks for the brave men and women who lost their lives fighting for our freedoms.  I am not sure whose brilliant idea it was, but I think it was an epic failure. Between Kim Gravel, LUG Life and QVC, I would have hoped that someone would have expressed their distaste for this campaign.

As a person who served, I agree.

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

I agree. I lost my brother in war and don't think this is appropriate.

I agree GLAMorial Day is completely disrespectful. I have many stronger words as well but will refrain. Where do you see this? I did not see it on the main page or in the Program Guide for Memorial Day on the main channel.

This is disrespect and beyond. My thoughts go to those who lost loved ones who fought for their country, only to have to bear witness now to commercialization of their pain. QVC needs to apologize for this thoughtless, cringy moniker.
