NAACP implored NFL to not 'fund Fox News’ hatred, bigotry, lies' with new Fox TV deal
Yahoo ^ | March 18, 2021 | Jason Owens

The NAACP sent a letter to NFL commissioner Roger Goodell on March 9 urging the league not to negotiate a new TV deal with broadcast partner Fox.

The civil rights organization condemned Fox News for promoting "hatred, bigotry, lies and racism" and implored the league to not fund the network by signing a contract with its sister company.

The letter signed by president and CEO Derrick Johnson applauds "the NFL’s indications of support for social justice" while condemning Fox News' efforts "to inflame racial division and propagate an unstable political climate."

I won’t watch it again until there is an all white league filled with conservatives that love their country.

I won't allow race to enter into my decision, but the league must have a policy that players, coaches, etc. must respect the flag, the country for which it stands, and the veterans who defend it before I'll watch the NFL again.

NAACP and the NFL need to hire more Asians. Stop the hatred of Asians.

I don’t get it.

Does the NFL pay Fox and other networks? Don’t the networks pay the NFL for the rights to carry the games?

May be it should. Nearly every sport has been ruined by negro athletes. They drag their culture where ever they go. It is guaranteed the same results will occur. For the record, I don't have a problem with any person's skin color, but I do have problems with cultures that are the antithesis to mine. Hell, I am old. It isn't going to happen in my lifetime, so I might as well shut up.

Spending one’s life race-hustling and full of hatred...what a waste.

I thought it was a misprint when I first read the Amazon deal. Only for Thursday night. Stunning. So much for go woke, go broke.

These media outlets should start bidding on horse-shoe franchises—they have a better future than the national felon league.

The NAACP has a CEO?

Hmm. Seems, counter intuitive.

According to a recent pod cast, Supposedly the NAACP is down to less than 50,000 dues paying members. They claim over 100,000 - but the NAACP does not remove dead members from their membership list. Much like the Democrat voting records.

The NAAACP is too ignorant to know that Fox News and Fox Entertainment are now two entirely different entities? Disney own 21st Century Fox.

"The snowflakes are now demanding that the GM and people in the office have the same skin tone as the athletes."

Isn't it equally logical to want the athlete to be the same color as the management?

I'm waiting for the NBA to normalize their "diversity."

I agree with you that it's not race, it's culture. Black underachievement goes well beyond being slaves and goes back into their African culture.

"Maybe BET should bid on the contract."

You beat me to it. I couldn't care less either.
