Obviously, both you and the MSM are quite disingenuous.

The MSM does not want to upset viewers;  watching NFL players kneel upsets most Americans.

Ergo: the MSM chooses not to show NFL players kneeling because they don't want to lose viewers;  thus, their explanation, like yours, is false.

You probably enjoy watching NFL players make a newsworthy political statement by kneeling during our national anthem.

Do you, like Kaepernick, make contributions to criminals like Assata Shakur?

Do you believe Espn is political?

Have a nice day.
