With President Donald Trump's attacks against protesting NFL players still reverberating, the league's TV partners decided to air live coverage of the national anthem before Week 3 games. Those partners left out a key element of the coverage: crowd shots of angry fans.
Networks typically do not televise the national anthem except for the Super Bowl and other special occasions, but they recognized there would be intense viewer interest this past weekend.

They are paid to push the BLM National Thug bs!
The sports media, and the networks for whom they serve, are reflexively leftist, race-baiting and hate Trump with molton hot passion.
I attended a Trump thank you rally. The enthusiastic and loud clapping and cheering did not get heard on TV broadcasts. The technicians know how to pick up or dim sound from any part of an event. They are so dishonest.
Got an email this morning from NFL.com, offering me free shipping today only or some such. I sent them a scathing message:
I WILL NEVER BUY ANYTHING FROM YOU AGAIN. MY HUSBAND, HIS FATHER, AND OUR THREE SONS ALL SERVED HONORABLY IN THE UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS. MY FATHER SERVED IN THE U S ARMY. YOU HAVE THE AUDACITY TO PRETEND THAT YOUR PLAYERS AND THEIR UNSUBSTANTIATED COMPLAINTS ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN HONORING OUR COUNTRY.
DO NOT SEND ME ANY MORE MESSAGES.
The networks are making a fortune with the NFL. Their broadcasts, commentaries and political leanings all dictate that they do all they can to help the NFL get through this situation. If you are looking to the networks for honesty, truth and patriotism, you are looking in the wrong place. The networks are the MSM. The executives that manage the news divisions also manage the revenue producing sports programming. Those executives are rich ,liberal and have an underlying contempt for the American people.
That’s OK. I hate these bottom-feeding scum with a radiant, sun-hot passion.
Rush nailed it yesterday playing clips of them saying the protest had nothing to do with the anthem or flag.
Then protest at another time and place.
Kaepernick said plainly it was protesting America and “racist cops.”
They just keep lying.
What about this question: when do the protests end? By what date or reaching of what goals?
If it’s a perpetual protest, why bother?
I was at a game
The booing was loud, long and seemed all fans were doing it.
“What about this question: when do the protests end? By what date or reaching of what goals?”
They don’t end. The same for Affirmative Action.
Showing the disapproval of the fans doesn’t fit the agenda.
It will become increasingly more difficult to hide the growing number of empty seats at the games.
TV broadcasting is an industry that has managed to eliminate free market competition and allow garbage entrepreneurs to thrive with no proven customer support.
Hate, envy and jealousy. Controlled by evil.
The booing should become less and less apparent as fewer and fewer people actually go to the game. Fewer booers = less booing.
Spot on!!
Send these bastards a message
Well I say, “If they take a knee, just give’em the FINGER!!”
And, bravo NRA, herein: https://youtu.be/z3j1ZKz7PWQ
Because the TV networks are owned by members of the greater deep state and in the tank with those who mean to control us.
JoMa
Because they are on the side of the America-haters.
What networks do not have NFL contracts? It’s kind of mafia-like. If you want to be a part of the NFL cash cow, then you ignore anything that might hurt the network cash cow.
