Fox News reports:
The annual June 1 kickoff to Pride Month came and went on Monday and the NFL’s X account that serves over 36 million followers and its Instagram account that serves 32 million followers did not mention the event. Let that sink in for a moment.
The league accounts that, in the past years, have told fans that “football is gay,” that “football is lesbian,” that football is queer, transgender, bisexual and, for everyone, were silent on the issue. The National Football League’s social media accounts this year stuck to, well, football.
For conservatives, Christians and others, it is a small victory they hope extends throughout the entire month and eventually to the league’s individual teams, most of which embraced Pride Month on its first day. Nine of the 32 teams did not recognize Pride Month on Monday.
For some gay activists, the NFL’s action (or inaction) on social media on Monday means they’re hoping some admin corrects an oversight as early as Tuesday morning. Otherwise, it’s a big loss for those activists that want their sexuality celebrated and amplified by the country’s most popular sports league.
Read the full article. What Fox News conveniently fails to note is the official NFL account did retweet Pride Month messages from multiple NFL teams. Examples below.
