Dana White would like you to believe that the UFC is an apolitical organization. Appearing on Fox News host Sean Hannity’s show Monday night, White claimed that the UFC’s success during the COVID-19 pandemic was due, in part, to the promotion’s supposed political apathy. “One of the things that I really tried to do through this whole thing is stay out of politics,” White told Hannity. “When people tune in to watch sports, they don’t want to hear that crap. They don’t want to hear what your opinions are, or who you’re voting for, or what you’re doing. They want to get away from everything in their life, and they want to focus on [for] two, three, four hours, however long the sport is … throughout this pandemic, when you turned on the UFC, we never talked about Covid. We never talked about politics.”
