Laura Ingraham Cries Foul on ‘Astounding’ NBA Hypocrisy
On FNC’s The Ingraham Angle, Laura Ingraham, along with Fox Sports’ Clay Travis, double-teamed the super-woke and sanctimonious National Basketball Association and the sneaker giant Nike for caving to the dictatorship in China while at the same time lecturing America about its shortcomings.
National Basketball Association players and coaches have hardly been shy about cataloging America’s sins or condemning U.S. President Donald Trump for his failings. When it comes China’s rampant human rights abuses, however, the woke NBA has suffered a collective case of laryngitis.
Lots of National Basketball Association players head to China in the off season. It’s not just for the extra appearance cash; the sneaker companies tell them to just do it, as it were. NBA players sign enormous contracts with the athletic shoe companies, and brand marketing is part of the deal. The NBA, the shoe companies, and China’s state-controlled economy are closely linked.
Most people go through day-to-day life without being consumed by politics. For them, politics is an afterthought. That’s kind of the way it should be and is perhaps the best argument for the smallest-possible government.
