テレビや雑誌や広告ではどうして Independence Dayと言わずに 4th of July と書くのでしょうか?
7月4日には変わりないですが、独立した事を祝うんですよね??
じゃぁ独立記念日というほうがしっくりくるんですが。。。

アメリカは移民の国なので、いろんな国の出身の人が集まっています。
アメリカ以外の国の記念日を祝う人もたくさん住んでいます。
July4thはアメリカ独立記念日
シンコデマヨ(5月5日)はメキシコがフランスに勝ったお祝い記念日
などと、日にちで覚えてるほうが混乱しなくていいからじゃないですかね?
「アメリカの独立記念日って何月何日でしたっけ?」なんて考えなくていいでしょう。
ちなみに日本の建国記念日は何月何日と聞かれてもすぐに出て来ない人も多いでしょうな。

敢えてググらず投稿。

アメリカの祝日って連休になるように、第何週の金曜日とか月曜日とかになっている。でも、独立記念日は曜日は関係なく必ず7月4日。
Independence Dayと4th of July、語呂が良くて言いやすいのは確実に4th of July、だから愛称として定着している(と思う)。
メディア媒体では例えばイベントやセールなど、日にちを強調する(数字で表す)ことでカウントダウンやセール期間を知らせる効果がある(と思う)。あと、「独立記念」なんて堅苦しい事を祝うよりも7月4日の祭日は皆揃ってBBQパーティーだー!花火だー!とドンチャン騒ぎをしよーぜー、と宣伝した方が経済効果が上がる(と思う)。
以上、私感より。

1776年7月4日、イギリスから独立したのは13州だけです。
というか、当時アメリカはその13州しか存在してませんでした。
それが関係あるのかなー?
それともやっぱり、日にちを印象づけるためなんでしょうかねぇ?

投稿後ググってみたけど、建国記念日どころか他の国民の休日にも全然カスってもいない自分の答えに自分で吹いてしまったw

みなさんありがとうございました。
結局のところ、分かったような分からんような^^;;
まぁ日にちが覚えやすいのと、ざっくばらんなアメリカらしさというとこなんでしょうね。
