. >> this morning, nfl commissioner roger goodell testifies on handling of complaints against the washington commanders and team owner dan snyder for its alleged toxic workplace environment. you can watch live coverage beginning at 11:00 a.m. eastern. it's also available on c-span now or online at c-span.org. ze. the fourth hearing investigating the capitol riot's served tuesday -- heard tuesday from state officials from georgia and arizona. about how then president trump and his allies leaned on them to help overturn his loss in the 2020 election. the georgia secretary of state, who trump asked to find votes in a leaked phone call testified trump received fewer votes than expected because 28,000 republicans who voted did not choose a president that year. supporting gop candidates for other offices instead. the chief operating officer gabriel sterling told the panel he had become irate when election workers were threatened after trump made false claims about the results. one of them he said was threatened to be "hung for treason" after transferring election report to a county computer. repub

roger goodell doesn't want to do this. kennedy: does the government really need to be involved or should -- are the owners protecting roger goodell? >> it's an american embarrassment they have to get involved so that is the reason for the hearing, everyone is pointing out and saying why are we here today? billion dollars business, maybe even trillion dollar business is not doing anything to hold the owners accountable so diversity and racism, you have to stand up when you have delegations like this. kennedy: but they are not going to, they do exactly what mark zuckerberg does every time, i hear you, i hear you, we are going to do better, we want to do better and we want to do better things. no, you are doing the same thing and you will shadow ban people and take money from bad places and make sure conservatives don't have the same ways everyone else does in the same thing, pay the dancers almost zero and treat them like garbage. you have people taking pictures of their -- i'm not going to mention any names. >> the truth is

>> number one, roger goodell simply cannot say that a certain workplace culture doesn't exist anymore. that's his opinion, whether it works or not. if you talk to the people who work at that place, they're still talking and they're still talking off the record to many pele in the media. the biggest reason why they abide by it is because they're part of a private club. once you're an insider, you don't criticize other insiders. it is part of that club. and because they all know that if you turn on them one day, they may turn on you. that's exactly what this sort of this ownership group is. it is a private club. they decide who's in it and they keep it as private as possible. the short answer really is that the owners do not want to break ranks, even if it includes enabling someone like daniel snyder. [9.1s] geoff: what does that all then mean for goodell's credibility? because the other thing that struck me was that in that hearing, he confirmed many of the claims about the the commanders culture found in that investigation by attorney beth wilkinson, but he still refused to release th

roger goodell told them that he does not have the authority to do that. kevin blackstone now, professor at university of maryland, college of journalism. kevin, good to see you again. you covered the team for years. what you make of the allegations in the first place? and the fact they are only coming to light in such detail now. >> well, "the washington post" it looks like we will have beth reinhardt, actually got their hands on the report, the report of the $1.6 million settlement to a woman who claimed that she was sexually harassed by dan snyder back in 2009. they actually got the report back in december of 2020. but did not have the details of it until just now. those allegations coming out and making the situation even uglier than it was before. and so i think today you saw the outlaying of this entire case for the public. what struck me about it is just the fact that if not for the opaqueness of the investigation by the nfl into the washington football team's workplace culture, in the first place, there may not have been a hearing. and if not for t

now the league's commissioner roger goodell admits. there's a problem saying the leagues failure to add diversity to its head coaching ranks is unacceptable his word. and indeed the numbers are stark if in a league in which 70% of the players are black or other minorities only two head coaches or black and a total of five or minorities. now, of course john feinstein one of the best sports journalist on the planet was in front of the story. his latest book raise a fist take a knee. raced in the illusion of progress in modern sports came out in november it lays out the decidedly mixed record of success that sports and not just the nfl but also major league baseball big-time college football and basketball and other pro sports. had in promoting and especially in achieving racial equity. baseball 30 teams two black managers and just one black executive running a team baseball operations. college football's top division the one in which alabama and ohio state and missouri and kansas play. 130 programs in which 60% of the players were black

what why wouldn't roger goodell talk to me because i've known goodell since he first got the job and i always got along fine with him and i was turned down flat. i interviewed every other major commission turn down flat to interview goodell and ironically the day they put out the statement when florida sued them. it was almost word for word the email that i got from brian mccarthy the nfl's pr guy on why roger wouldn't speak to me, you know the nfl rogers very busy trying to promote diversity and blah blah blah and i so i said to tomlin and tony dungey, why wouldn't he talk to me and they both said the same thing? he's embarrassed. he you know, i don't think roger goodell is a bad guy, but he's not the problem here tell the owners what to do because they're paying him 44 million bucks here. so doug williams wrote the forward to the book and in it. he said if this book were to be written by someone who is black a lot of people would shrug and say it's just another black guy whining. so i'm wondering how you took advantage of your whiteness to write this book how that came into play. s

>> well, the thing is that dan snyder is roger goodell's boss roger goodell's commissioner works at the behest of the owners which is why they pay him some $60 million a year i think was his last take from the league he did his due diligence today, which was to stand up there and take all the arrows from capitol hill while dan snyder was off in europe and basically thumbing his nose at lawmakers on capitol hill so, you know, at what point do they decide to -- to call dan snyder on the carpet and to push him out? i think only when it affects their pocketbook and, you know, i -- the sinning cynic in me has looked at this kind of like the way this donald sterling existed in the nba for so many years despite he was such an onerous owner. dan snyder is not a threat right now to other owners in the league his team is not competitive and so far he doesn't cost them any money. and as bad as any other owner may be in this league they can always point back to washington and say this guy is worse than i am and i think that's the situation they're in right now >> wow, kevin blackistone, a very sad

today we will hear from roger goodell, commissioner of the nfl. i am glad he is participating and i hope we will finally get more transparency about what the nfl found and why mr. goodell has worked so hard to keep it secret. we also invited daniel snyder to testify today. but rather than show up and take responsibility for his actions, he chose to skip town. apparently mr. snyder is in france where he has docked his luxury kwra*t near a resort town. that should tell you just how much respect he has for women in the workplace. mr. snyder's absence is all the more telling given that the committee released new evidence today that mr. 123450euder -- mr. snyder himself fostered the commander's toxic workplace. according to top executives, he fired women but not men who engaged in relationships with other employees while defending male executives accused of sexual harassment. he kept employees from speaking out through a culture of fear. as one long time employee described mr. snyder's tactics, quote, if you don't obey, intimidate. if you still don't o

when roger goodell took this job, they said the standard of being an nfl player was above the standard of the law, and they picked three guys they wanted to make scapegoats to show what a tough commissioner roger goodell was. that's almost 20 years ago now when you look back on how long it's been since the commissioner got the job but he decided that the standard of the nfl player was higher than it was for the regular person so simply saying it isn't a crime isn't going to be sufficient so i would expect a suspension of at least six games. wouldn't be surprised if it was more. >> i imagine there will be additional public pressure for the browns to take action, the nfl to do something, but i want to switch topics as we wait to see what action they take. let's talk about golf. phil mickelson and dustin johnson joining a highly controversial tour backed by mohammed bin salman, who is accused of killing a dissident. when mickelson criticized the saudi regime, saying, we know they killed khashoggi, yet here he is, going to play in the tour's first event later this week. >> he believes that
