KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Greeting card giant Hallmark said Thursday that it shouldn't have changed the lyrics to "Deck the Halls" on a new holiday ornament that stirred a backlash from customers online.

The ornament removes the word "gay" and emblazons the sweater with the phrase: "Don we now our FUN apparel!"
