NFL fans took to social media and made it clear they do not think it’s right that an AFC wild-card game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Miami Dolphins has been paywalled on the Peacock network‚ a first in playoff history. Both the league and the network have been slammed after making Saturday’s game only available to Peacock subscribers‚ forcing fans to sign up to watch‚ Sports Illustrated reported. NFL reporter Ari Meirov pointed out that the league and network are making a lot of money by making the game exclusive to Peacock subscribers. Fans rightfully crush NFL and NBC for putting AFC playoff game exclusively on Peacock https://t.co/yDzrVBQUc7 — Sports Illustrated (@SInow) January 8‚ 2024 “Peacock is paying in the range of $110M to exclusively carry a playoff game‚” Meirov wrote in a post on X. “The game they are getting is a Chiefs / Patrick Mahomes game. FWIW: My comment section is not happy.” Many of the comments pointed out that‚ while it’s not unheard of for fans to pay to see their teams play during the regular season due to regional broadcast rights‚ fans have never had to pay extra money to see an NFL playoff game. “An absolute joke that a full NFL playoff game is exclusively on [Peacock]‚” one person wrote. “Steaming services are ruining sports broadcasts.” Another added‚ “Probably just me but I think the NFL having a playoff game exclusively on Peacock is disgraceful. It’s never about the fans and always about the money. I hope it gets the lowest rating of any playoff game.” New York sports radio host Mike Francesa called the NFL “greedy” for the move‚ TMZ noted. “The NFL‚ which has the biggest‚ the best‚ and the most loyal fanbase anywhere‚ decides to basically thumb its nose at its fanbase and just make another greedy reach for another bundle of money‚ like they need it.”  CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP Chiefs defensive end Charles Omenihu slammed the move as “insane” and offered a way for fans to see the game for free.  “Alright Chiefs Kingdom‚ I saw the comments and want y’all to be able to watch us play…So‚ I’m giving away 90 3-month Peacock memberships!” he wrote on social media. “To enter to win‚ reply to this tweet with why you should get picked‚” he added. “Picking winners Friday!” Fans who live in the Kansas City or Miami television markets can view the game on their local NBC affiliate. But fans outside those areas must pay $5.99 for a monthly subscription to Peacock to watch‚ TMZ noted.

President Joe Biden’s embattled son Hunter Biden made a surprise appearance on Capitol Hill on Wednesday‚ leading to a raucous scene as reporters tried to shout questions at him — including one intrepid reporter‚ who asked “what kind of crack” he preferred. The younger Biden crashed a House Oversight Committee hearing — while members met to discuss a contempt citation against him for defying an earlier subpoena — and as he attempted to exit the building afterward‚ reporters swarmed him and shouted their questions in the hopes that they’d be acknowledged.

No sooner had he made that request than one reporter shouted‚ “What kind of crack do you normally smoke‚ Mr. Biden?” Biden was also asked‚ according to Real Clear Investigations reporter Paul Sperry‚ whether he was high right then. “As Hunter Biden suddenly fled the contempt hearing over his subpoena defiance‚ ending a surprise appearance he staged with Democrats‚ reporters and others shouted a number of questions at him in the hallway‚ including ‘Hunter‚ are you on crack right now?'” Sperry posted via X.

The BBC news network has issued an apology for regurgitating a false claim from the terrorist organization Hamas that the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) were executing Palestinians inside Gaza. The BBC reported on Christmas Eve that Israel was carrying out “summary executions” of Palestinian civilians inside Gaza‚ Deadline reported. The report said that the news agency AFP‚ which said it could not verify the claims‚ appeared to be the source of the story. “In overnight output [on BBC radio news bulletins] we ran a story about Hamas accusing the Israeli army of carrying out summary executions in the Gaza strip‚” the BBC said in a statement. “This was a Hamas statement‚ but although the accusations were attributed and our story contained a response from the Israeli military saying they were unaware of the incident and that Hamas was a terrorist organisation that did not value truth‚ we had not made sufficient effort to seek corroborating evidence to justify reporting the Hamas claim. We apologise for this mistake.” The Times of Israel noted that the BBC has faced intense criticism‚ including from the British government‚ for refusing to call Hamas a terrorist organization. The BBC has been forced to apologize for reporting false claims against Israel as the country hunts down the Islamic terrorists responsible for murdering 1‚200 Israelis during the unprecedented October 7 terrorist attack. The network speculated on air that Israel was behind an explosion at a hospital inside Gaza. It was later proven that the explosion was caused by a rocket fired by terrorists with Palestinian Islamic Jihad. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP The BBC also issued an apology after claiming that Israeli troops targeted Arabs and medics during their raid of Al-Shifa‚ a hospital inside Gaza that was used as a terrorist command center. The network‚ which misquoted a Reuters news article‚ said Israeli troops were “targeting people‚ including medical teams as well as Arab speakers.” What the report actually said was that the IDF had Arabic-speaking soldiers and medics that were at the scene to make sure that “supplies reach those in need.”

A no-nonsense black Chicago pastor slammed Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban for his wholehearted embrace of DEI policies‚ saying that Cuban’s position was “deeply flawed” and DEI policies are a “poisonous ideology.” After Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk stated‚ “Discrimination on the basis of race‚ which DEI does‚ is literally the definition of racism‚” Cuban responded that it is a “a given that there are people of various races‚ ethnicities‚ orientation‚ etc that are regularly excluded from hiring consideration.” Discrimination on the basis of race‚ which DEI does‚ is literally the definition of racism — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) January 3‚ 2024 Let me help you out and give you my thoughts on DEI1. DiversityGood businesses look where others don't‚ to find the employees that will put your business in the best possible position to succeed. You may not agree‚ but I take it as a given that there are people of various… https://t.co/L00fl6ggUD — Mark Cuban (@mcuban) January 3‚ 2024 “I pastor one of Chicago’s toughest neighborhoods on the South Side and @mcuban’s defense of DEI is deeply flawed for one reason: this poisonous ideology has no impact on my community‚ the very community it professes to help‚” Pastor Corey Brooks said. Brooks noted that when people said DEI policies were being done in the name of his community‚ “Sometimes I laughed out loud at some of the claims. It was like listening to people who don’t know you talk about you as if they knew you deep down.” He continued that Cuban’s assertion implied that the U.S. is systemically racist‚ adding‚ “I agree there is racism but not in the way that he thinks.” “If @mcuban came into my community it wouldn’t take him long to understand that this DEI ideology is profoundly flawed‚ has no impact upon us‚ and creates more racial divisions‚” he wrote. “The reality is that the countless of diversity programs that came into being since the late 1960s have been abysmal failures. Nearly every one of them‚ if not all‚ professed to have the goal of uplifting poor blacks after centuries of racial oppression. The original intent of Affirmative Action was true uplift by providing bootstraps: better schools‚ teachers and resources to uplift the undereducated segments of the black population.” “However‚ this process of development was too slow for the many white university presidents who wanted to increase the diversity on their campuses now‚” he pointed out. “They moved away from development to cold racial preferences. Diversity‚ not development‚ became the new virtue of our times. At the same time‚ our community was bombarded with one liberal policy after another since the 1960s.” “Instead of embracing freedom and responsibility‚ too many of us allowed ourselves to be seduced into the culture of dependency. Those who could escape and make a life for themselves did and many did‚” he recalled. “But for those of us who have been caught up in the multigenerational cycle of societal and governmental dependency‚ that is the only world they know. And we ask them to believe in the American Dream?” “This is the world of bad faith that I’m trying to reverse every day with my work in the streets‚ which includes overseeing the building of a community center that came after long years of struggle. … many kids in my neighborhood have made it out — one of them was just awarded a prestigious fellowship at NASA.” “The only tool I used with these youths: the American principles‚” he declared. “Be on time. Say‚ yes sir‚ no sir. Respect your elders. Be responsible. Be accountable. Save money. Build credit. Plan for the future. Be a parent. Get married. You fall‚ get back up. Never give up. Just do it.” “That is why I laugh out loud when I heard DEI advocates describe merit and punctuality as white supremacist values. Too many people were destroyed by this culture of dependency and now they want to take away all the remaining lifelines to a life of possibility and future?” he asked rhetorically. “What Cuban doesn’t realize from his post is that the systemic racism that my community faces is not white supremacy but post-60s liberalism‚” Brooks stated. “With diversity and not development as its focus‚ every one of those principles was created in the name of our inferiority.” “It is my mission in life to develop strong individuals to the point where the thought of using race as an advantage would be an insult to their well-earned pride. We are only at the beginning of reversing the fortunes of our community and we have a long ways to go. We may not save everybody. But we know the harsh realities and it is our refusal to look way to some false ideological comforts that gives us the best chance of giving these young Americans a good life. That is how you create a deep and meritorious talent pool‚” he concluded.
