But that is not all that was the object of Haver's and Best's derision in the NY Times interview. BRCC is promoting the article on their social media accounts so it doesn't appear that they disagree with what was written. The point I was trying to make is that it seems they profited off their marketing to conservatives and now are now trying to distance themselves from the image they themselves created and insulting many of their customers who are not racist or woke to do it.

The part in bold makes me retract my statements. You are correct that if it was the NY Times twisting their words (as I believe the Times does in most interviews, especially with a conservative), they would not endorse or promote the interview. They would post a clarification of any disputed points.

The Redstate article is much more even handed (as they usually are) and attempts to explain why they would change their attitude. That is not a good enough reason for me.
