2. Whoopsie daisy, it has middle fingers on it. Those mean bad words, you know. The American public is corrupted forever and the news media must apologize:
We inadvertently showed an offensive image on a t-shirt during one of our reports tonight. We apologize to our viewers. #NBCNightlyNews

3. Edelman realizes the issue and solves it with the help of a jacket and a folder:
Edelman realizing what shirt he had on: "Oh my -- I've got this shirt on right now? Jeez bro, you guys didn't even let me know about that."

But too late. The damage has been done.
I wonder what the actual Tupac, who is alive and loves Boston sports, thinks of this.
