5:13Now PlayingThe New York Times recently published an expose on the NFL and some of their similarities to the tobacco industry. Both companies suppressed information about the physical dangers of their product to protect profits. Ana Kasparian, Hasan Piker (Pop Trigger), and Grace Baldridge, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"This week, NFL lawyers sent a letter to The New York Times demanding that theTimes’s recent investigation into the league’s bogus concussion studies be retracted. It was so limp that it demanded a proper takedown. Thankfully, theTimes was happy to oblige, via a response letter from their own lawyers...
"As you know, The Times has a policy of correcting factual errors as promptly as possible. I have reviewed your letter with our editors and reporters, and nowhere does your letter identify any factual error that we have made in our reporting on the ties between the NFL and the tobacco industry. The crux of the letter is the NFL’s complaint that the connections identified by the Article between the NFL and the tobacco industry were not “meaningful.” Obviously, that is an opinion, not a fact.”*
