I don’t care about Juan and his ignorance regarding conservatives, but I care even less for NPR. Americans shouldn’t have to fund that garbage.

Actually, the quickest and easiest way to have an affect on NPR...is to demand that the NPR HQ’s and entire establishment...leave DC. Congress has BRAC’ed the military and accomplished several moves involving parts of the US gov’t...so a move for NPR would be in order.

My suggestions? Knoxville, TN or Branson, Missouri. The logic here is that 95 percent of the journalists would say no, and they’d have to rebuild from scratch. I suspect that this new environment would do wonders for the attitude and the topics that are regularly featured.

Pretty soon, the NPR will be spending money on re-education camps and requiring all employees to attend or else...

Schiller’s manner became less severe.
“I am taking trouble with you, Juan,” she said, “because you are worth trouble. You know perfectly well what is the matter with you. You have known it for years, though you have fought against the knowledge. You are mentally deranged.”

wonder how many times Viv has talked to $oro$ in the last 48 hours? Perhaps she can show her phone records?

Perhaps NPR CEO Vivian Schiller’s comments should be kept to herself.

She should be “ask to resign” (govt speak for fired) for any number of things, running an govt funded orginization with a so heavily liberal/socialist bias that it wreaks, allowing a double standard regarding NPR employees who do not express said liberal/socialist viewpoint, and on and on.

RE: She is about to be fired.


If she’s the CEO of this government funded organization , who is her boss?

I think Mr. Williams can slap this witch with a defamation lawsuit. Why would she even think about “outing” Juan Williams seeing a psychiatrist. If it is true or not is irrelevant.

This is funny on so many levels....
First liberals attacking other liberals...
Second, admitting that liberals need ongoing psychiatric help....
Third, the hypocrisy of the way they treated Juan yet let others within NPR slide for far more egregious remarks about conservative issues or people....
My prediction, in the long run this will catapult Juan's career.....

Today Fox signed Juan to a new three-year contract for nearly $2 million. Meanwhile, conservative figures blast the public radio network for its response to Williams’ comments about Muslims.

The hypocrisy of the liberals truly amazes me. They can say what ever they want about a conservative, but say one politically incorrect thing and they go ballistic. Unbelievable.

Actually just cut off tax funding is the best way to rid ourselves of these pests.

Liberals give themselves passes on their own hatred. Trust me - her hateful comment will be seen as ‘objective news analysis”.... We should start a thread of ugly things these folks have said ... course it would be so long it might crash the servers...

The NPR entities are another example of the nonprofit laws gone crazy in America. Like 100’s of thousands of other bogus “charities” NPR should not exist unless it is run like any other business and pays taxes. There should be no nonprofits in the country (there are zero in Mexico, for example) unless the entity feeds, clothes or houses people.

Read the NPR financials and see what a huge waste this is:
