NBC devoted just a fleeting few seconds to former President Donald Trump’s attendance at a Sunday night Pittsburgh Steelers game that the network was broadcasting, leaving some fans crying foul, especially given its doting coverage of Taylor Swift.
The former president was seen on the national broadcast for less than 10 seconds where he waved appreciatively to throngs of black-and-yellow-clad Steelers fans. Some present for the game shot video of the crowd chanting “USA! USA!” during breaks in the game, none of which was captured by NBC when it chose to briefly acknowledge his presence. “The 45th president, Donald Trump, in attendance tonight, the invited guest of one of the suite-holders here,” said commentator Mike Tirico before the network quickly switched to an overhead shot of the packed stadium.

MAGA fans called out NBC for hypocrisy, with one noting that the network on average devotes many minutes of airtime to showing or talking about Taylor Swift during her attendance at Kansas City Chiefs games to watch her boyfriend, tight end Travis Kelce. “On average, NBC shows Taylor Swift seven times during an NFL broadcast. Tonight, they showed Trump only once, and just for a few seconds,” John Le Fevre wrote on X, the Daily Mail reported. Others were in agreement.
“I’m amazed NBC showed Trump at the game,” one user wrote. “It was very brief, but you know it killed NBC to have to acknowledge Trump’s presence. But if it was Taylor Swift, they would have dedicated a 3-minute segment to it.” Another wrote, “Taylor Swift is shown by NBC Sports at least five times a quarter. But a U.S. President is only shown once for a span of three seconds. Pathetic.” Conservative activist Charlie Kirk obtained and posted footage of the crowd applauding President Trump, saying it was the “actual footage of the Steelers game tonight NBC won’t show you.” […]

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
