The Charlotte Observer wrote an editorial piece about the parallels of the NBA's boycott of Charlotte in 2016 and their current issues with China.
The Observer quoted Pat McCrory and his call out of the NBA's hypocrisy.
In response to McCrory's quote the Observer wrote:
"Protests like McCrory's have all the moral certitude of a speeder who is mad that the cops did not pull over another speeder."
Pat McCrory replied to this and other remarks from the article on the Pat McCrory Show.
