The Minority Report show went ahead and fixed that whole Redskins thing
Offering a precognitive glimpse of a world in which social media is blessedly free of screeds about “historical significance” or “tradition,” or that damned “political correctness,” and citizens can get back to their busy lives of stopping future crimes and bathing in goo, the people behind Fox’s upcoming Minority Report show have gone ahead and just changed the name of the NFL’s Washington Redskins for the show’s 2065 setting. According to the show’s executive producers, speaking at the Television Critic Association meeting this week, Washington D.C. football fans of the future will be rooting for the Washington Red Clouds, named for a renowned war leader of the Oglala Lakota tribe, instead of being forced to employ a racial slur every time they want to talk about their team.
