Are sports fans more likely to be Republicans or Democrats? Lady Gaga is being gagged by the NFL. What are they afraid of?
Lady Gaga was told by the NFL not to mention Trump or politics or the election during half-time festivities at the Super Bowl. Attacking the citizen's right to free speech at a SuperBowl Game? Seriously? Do you adore/abhor the NFL demand? Why?
Well I'm sure they are a little afraid of alienating a portion of their fan base. Plus I just don't think the NFL( being a competition league for entertainment) wants to be politically involved in anything. It's a good move all around. It really shouldn't be political platform and using as such is kinda distasteful. It doesn't belong there. If an entertainer can't abide by such a simple request to put their politics aside for one moment they can find somewhere else to voice an opinion.
I agree with the NFL's decision to focus on being solely an entertainment venue.
