1. What is the main idea of Jon Schweppe's editorial?

2. Last week, CNN journalist Christina MacFarlane got shut down when she asked Houston Rockets stars James Harden and Russell Westbrook if they would refrain from speaking out on politics/social justice after China debacle. Watch the video on twitter. What is your reaction?

3. For each of the following statements by Mr. Schweppe, write agree or disagree and explain your answer.:

• "This should be very worrying for all Americans, not just sports fans. If the price of US companies doing business in China involves self-censorship, there should be no sale." and
• "Our country and the freedoms we enjoy are too important to ignore the league’s craven conduct."
