Scrooge lives in a Dallas mall. Who knew? KERA did.

Hey, how about sharing some station seasonal cheer in the Current blog for the next couple weeks? We'll start with this feature from KERA in Dallas, where for more than three decades a Scrooge puppet has been hurling insults at NorthPark Center mall shoppers during the holidays. KERA's Stephen Becker talked to John Hardman, the voice behind the grump.

Is your station covering a fun tradition in the community, or planning any special events? Let us know. And don't forget to send along photos!
