The New England Patriots have called out the New York Times for lying to people in multiple tweets about the NFL team meeting with President Trump.
On Thursday, New York Times tweeted out two photos. One photo showed the Patriots with President Obama at the White House in 2015. The second photo showed a picture of the Patriots with President Trump in 2017, showing fewer people standing with the President Trump than Obama.
The only reason to tweet such a comparison photo would be to ridicule President Trump. However, the New England Patriots official Twitter account responded to the photo comparison by pointing out that New York Times was actually misleading people.
New York Times then tried to justify this by tweeting that there were fewer football players with President Trump, 34 compared to 50, even though the Patriots said that the same size delegation was sent.
The Patriots fired back again, pointing out that New York Times continued to lie to people. They responded that there were 36 players present in 2015, while in 2017 there were 34 players. One of the players, Tom Brady, was unable to attend due to personal family matters. In total, only 1 player skipped out on meeting with President Trump for political reasons.
New York Times has not responded after being humiliated for being caught twice trying to deceive people.

I am confused by this:
“New York Times then tried to justify this by tweeting that there were fewer football players with President Trump, 34 compared to 50, even though the Patriots said that the same size delegation was sent.”
Were there actually fewer players there, that seems to be indicated, but the total “delegation” was the same size????
I agree.
As I understand it PC was central to Hitler’s takeover of Germany. You either fell in line or you were in serious trouble.
Look at what they are doing to Whites at our universities.
This is some serious stuff.
This is because Sports are our GOD, stadiums are our Cathedrals, and bowl games have become our sawdust trails.
Why NOT try to inject politics into the biggest audiences around?
And the Germans were NOT a bunch of ignorant hicks at this point in time.
That’s right.
