Robert Kraft cancels Macklemore over Israel remarks

Patriots owner Robert Kraft removed Macklemore from two of Ed Sheeran's shows at Gillette Stadium over the rapper's Israel remarks, a decision that drew criticism from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the advocacy group CAIR. Kraft has since said Ed Sheeran asked him to donate $2m in aid after the backlash. Commentary has continued to defend Kraft, arguing he opposes dangerous lies rather than free speech.
