ALL music should be reviewed, and if it offends or upsets more than 5-6% of the audience, radio stations shouldn't play it. For example, maybe kids shouldn't be allowed to listen to 'Frosty the Snowman', as it tells them to ignore police instructions, like 'Stop!' And do you want kids growing up thinking that's it's OK to keep hippos in garages?Okay now your not even being serious
Something must be done!!

But I'm thinking of sending a nice Christmas card to the radio station in question for having the courage to pull a song that for 50 years was considered harmless, but is now clearly a danger to women everywhere.Something being considered harmless for a long period of time does not mean upon reflection it is harmless and i don't the radio considers their choice not to play it an act of courage .
Moral: Don't be alone with Dean Martin on a snowy night, or he'll try to rape you.

Can you point to ANY actual harm caused by this song? Chrissake, people act like it’s going to empower rapists or something.
‘Well, did assault her, officer, but I had just listened to “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” .
‘Ok, I’ll let you off with a warning.’
Come on.
