Just for perspective: the real villain in this story is Patriots owner and Epstein files bit player Robert Kraft, who threatened Sheeran with the cancellation of not only the gig in his stadium but in other stadiums run by his NFL owner friends if Macklemore wasn’t dropped over his “Free Palestine” stance. 1/2

It’s true Sheeran handled the situation poorly by not standing up for the free expression rights of a friend and fellow artist whose outspoken stance on Palestine has been well known for three years and calling Kraft’s bluff, but Kraft is the one who put Sheeran in an untenable position in the first place.
