evidence: The Kansas City Chiefs offer a "Pride Collection" of merchandise for the team’s LGBTQ+ fans. But social media posts are making the unsupported claim that the team "Refuses to Participate in Pride Month" this year. The claim apparently originated in a satirical article, and we could find no announcement from the team regarding this year’s Pride Month. [...] The text on a June 8 Facebook post falsely claimed, "NFL Team Kansas City Chiefs Refuses To Participate In Pride Month, ‘It’s Extremely Woke.'" The post received more than 34,000 likes. A post with the same photos of a Pride parade juxtaposed with uniformed Chiefs players was shared on Threads, also claiming the team refused to participate in Pride Month, and carried the caption, "KANSAS CITY CHIEFS STANDING FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS AND TRUTH WITH THE WORD OF GOD IN JESUS CHRIST NAME." [...] The June 8 Facebook post includes a link to an online article published on a website called News Today as evidence of its claim about the team’s stance on Pride Month. The headline on the article reads, "Breaking: The Kansas City Chiefs, an NFL franchise, declines involvement in Pride Month festivities, citing them as overly ‘woke.'" The article is a nearly word-for-word reprint of the satirical story that appeared on the SpaceXMania site.
