ESPN must have forced their sideline reporter use the word "perceived" racial inequality

Talking about the NFL giving focus to "social issues" it is like their script is deliberately meant not to offend their white Republican viewers. I think I'll watch Boston & Atlanta NBA instead. Wasn't sure to post this here or the Sports group. My main point is the words used like "perceived" are very problematic when a better word would have been obvious racial inequality.

Democrats need to boycott ESPN just like the near sighted rednecks boycott the NFL because of their interpretation of the kneeling issue. The only way to get the attention of these types is to hit them were they feel it - in their wallets! We also need to boycott Facebook and see if it jars Zuckerberg's memory and make him more forthcoming with his ties to the Russians.
