CFP Media Consultant Ari Fleischer’s Bad Publicity Tour Continues

With Ari Fleischer on the payroll of the College Football Playoff, the group never has to wait long for its next burst of negative feedback. They have a publicist consultant who specializes in generating negative publicity. Pretty much the opposite of what should be desired.

Fleischer’s appearance as the moderator at the Saudi-backed LIV Golf Tour’s press conference Tuesday was just the latest eye-rolling moment from a guy who has never failed to fail while working for the CFP. He’s also made regular appearances as a political commentator on Fox News, which has created some discomfort for a college athletics organization that tries to stay apolitical.
