Americans are evenly split on whether professional sports leagues
should require athletes to stand for the national anthem, according to a
new national survey.
In an HBO Real Sports/Marist poll, conducted
Oct. 15-17 by the Marist College Institute for Public Opinion with
funding from the HBO series "real Sports," 51 percent of respondents
opposed rules that would require players to stand, compared with 47
percent who supported such calls.
The 4-point difference is within the poll's
reported margins of sampling error of plus or minus 3 percentage points
among all respondents and plus or minus 3.7 percentage points among
self-described football fans, who made up 65 percent of the overall sample (PDF).
