Fox Sports Cancels all NFL Broadcasts until Players respect the Flag?

Fox Sports Cancels all NFL Broadcasts Until Players Respect the Flag?Image result for kneeling nfl player

The man who started the kneeling controversy, Colin Kapernick, former San Francisco 49ers quarterback, no longer plays for the NFL. President Trump has displayed his dismay over kneeling in during the National Anthem, posting many tweets criticizing not only the players, but the NFL. According to Fox News, Trump posted a tweet with, "an image appearing to show a grieving military family, in an apparent message to NFL players who still kneel." According to Snopes.com the website TheLastLineOfDefense.org published a fake news story claiming that Fox sports would suspend the broadcast of professional football games. As a NFL fan, and someone who continuously watches Fox Sports events, I can say that this would absolutely never happen. Not only do NFL games generate unimaginable AD revenue, if NFL games weren't broadcasted Fox would lose 100% of its support.
