Do they feel the same way about the soccer teams owned by the Saudis?

What about the womens basketball teams owned by the Russians or Eastern Europeans?

The Saudi's own about half of the PGA Tour Mechandise Shop, a $100 Billion entity.

Meanwhile the entire world is fine playing a World Cup in Qatar....
Less we forget all the shite that came out right after they were selected as host country of plenty of people dying building those stadiums. Not to mention the insane laws they have.

People keep saying the media is "out of touch."
That's incorrect. They are deliberately reporting "news" that fits an agenda they are paid to push. White, rich (likely conservative) golfers... "Those guys are bad for taking Saudi money!" And Mickelson was their perfect figurehead because he's the most famous guy they've got, and he was stupid enough to voice his opinions in the manner that he did.
So why won't the media report on the NBA and PGA Tour's dealings with China and the Saudis, or their sponsors' dealings with China and the Saudis? That would be throwing stones at their own house that they all live in together (corporate America, the media, our government, etc.)

No, they don’t.
They’re a minority investor in a minority investor. Silver Lake is Fanatics’ largest outside shareholder, and the umbrella co is only at about $27B, not $100B.

F1 is, and has been, taking huge hosting fees from ME countries while turning it's back on traditional venues that can't pay as much.
Known SJWs Lewis Hamilton and Sebastian Vettel continue to race in F1 while taking sponsorship money as well.

I somewhat agree. The difference is that Lebron and the NBA as a whole is far more preachy than the PGA

I thought this website was critical of the Saudis.
