Oh yeah, I think they are fine with pretty much any story as long as ‘NFL’ is included somewhere in it. Perhaps in depth stories or media focus on PEDs or brain injury might be exceptions. But maybe not.

Brain injuries are definitely an exception, as shown by them making ESPN pull out of that story (which still scares me, just how much of an entertainment juggernaut is the NFL that they can boss around The Mouse?!). Given how well MLB has “blazed the trail” on PEDs they’re probably not to worried about that one because they know most folks don’t actually care and eventually it just blows over.
