Did you listen to what he said? He OFFERED to fly to China to tour the factories... it should be easy for China and Nike to invite the press, show invoices tracking where every shoe is made, and visit every factory with a private jet.

BTW, it is easy to prove someone fathered children... something called DNA.

Celtics games have been turned off in China after one player's pro-Tibet tweet
npr.org

On Wednesday afternoon, Enes Kanter, a center for the Boston Celtics, traded his uniform for a t-shirt bearing an image of the Dalai Lama, and read a pro-Tibet message that has prompted Chinese broadcasters to take the Celtics off the air in China.
Now, all Celtics games have been removed from Tencent, the huge Chinese streaming platform that carries NBA games. Neither the NBA nor Tencent has released a public statement on the situation, nor did either immediately respond to NPR's request for comment.
"[Kanter] was clout-chasing, trying to get attention with Tibet-related issues. His wrong remarks are not worth refuting," said Wang Wenbin, the spokesperson for China's foreign ministry, at a press conference Thursday. "Tibet is part of China."
