Al Jazeera has published a video segment examining Robert Kraft, the billionaire owner of the New England Patriots, describing him as an "Epstein-linked NFL billionaire" and stating that he played a role in rapper Macklemore being dropped from singer Ed Sheeran's concert tour.
According to the outlet's description of the segment, the report explores who Kraft is and the circumstances behind Macklemore's removal from the tour lineup.
