On Wednesday, the White House retaliated on the governor of New York Kathy Hochy after the Democratic legislator made a hit on President Donald Trump for a major change for NFL fans.
Scott Hanson, who welcomes “NFL Redzone” on Sunday during the football season, said that there would be advertisements for broadcast despite the show’s slogan being “seven hours of football without advertising”.

“Business people manage the business and I have no say to say about different elements that could or may not be on the show,” said Hanson on “The Pat McAfee Show”. “When you see me coming on the antenna, we are going to hit the Octobox. We have eight games in the early window, taking you to all different cities. And then when we enter it”, ladies and gentlemen, that has been more than 250 days since the first Sunday of the NFL, but we are back. And seven hours of Redzone football are starting now. “”
He argued that no fan would miss “any big football for one of the commercial affairs”.
Hanson’s revelation sparked a ton of social media reaction, including Hochul. She called ESPN and the NFL to “solve” the problem. “Redzone” will go to ESPN properties from 2026.

“More advertisements, less football. Trump America,” wrote Hochul on X. “@nfl and @gyp: you have time to solve this problem!”
The White House rejected Hochul’s remark.
“What a scary to publish,” Trump’s spokesman Steven Cheung told PK Press Club Digital. “Too bad there is no remedy for stupid.”
Athletics has offered details on what a “redzone” could look like. WWE and Nascar have advertisements during their weekly events.
NFL fans will be able to see a double box with advertisements, according to The Athletic. Fans would have heard the audio of advertisements while looking at the action simultaneously.
