Of course he does. Juan seems schizophrenic to me.
go get a job on bet tv and get lost.
“Because that’s such an informed and influential audience,”
Yes, of course he does, it’s an easier job when everyone you are talking to already agrees with you.
Hell, yes, he misses NPR. They would never have Michele Malkin on there to kick his butt.
He’s right about an infuential audience. Informed? Only about their own beliefs. They know nothing about the rst of the country, and can’t even understand others. At least conservatives know what the other side actually believes.
Poor Juan is like a battered woman who can’t give up on her man.
‘NPR..Because that’s such an informed and influential audience,’
I know several NPR listeners in progressive Austin.
here are some examples of how informed they are:
1) None do not know to make a payroll because they spent their entire life employed by the government.
2) Government can create demand for products not the consumer.
3) The Crusades where Christian aggression rather than a response to Islam invasion of Europe.
4) Greed can be corrected by government intervention and homosexuality is genetic.
5) Art would NEVER exist without government.
6) Blacks could not succeed without the governments help(who is really racist??)
7) Sarah Palin said she could see Russia from her home(Tina Fey said it)
8) The Bible is a Jewish History book but the Koran is an instrument of multiculturalism.
9) Government regs for food consumption are not an infringement on personal rights and do not apply to them(NPR listener) because they are healthy.
10) Keynes is a genius, Milton Friedman is a NAZI and F A Hayek is a reactionary.
NPR listeners live in a bubble.
Juan appears to be biting the hand that now feeds him.
How does he know how informed or influential they are?
“that audience really liked me”
Juan is tired of having to intellectually support his comments.
I have a neice who proudly proclaimed she got ALL her news from NPR. She thinks that is a good thing and that she always has the straight story.
I had high hopes for Juan after he got broadsided by his own ideology at NPR. Seems being an individual and defending your beliefs when standing on your own is tougher than Juan had anticipated.
Tired of being body slammed and Bammy slapped, by little Michell Malkin no doubt!
He misses his audience and co-workers agreeing and hanging on to his every word. He actually has to think now, and the new group makes him look like the fool he is.
Williams or Beckel come on Fox, off goes Fox.
A bit uncomfortable outside of the echo chamber, Juan?
Where you actually have to consider perspectives outside of group think? And respond (somewhat intelligently) to them?
Heh.
Welcome to OUR world.
His work was furthering the "progress" of people who fired him for expressing a thought, a simple human reaction to the events of the day following 9/11.
Perhaps he just misses a hypnotized and adoring audience?
It’s always nice for lefties like Juan to stay in a bubble where all the thoughts and voices are the same and reinforce built-in bias for left wing issues.
He’s clearly uncomfortable sometimes on Fox when he is confronted with irrefutable logic from the conservative side.
As NYT columnist Pauline Kael once said, “How did Nixon get elected? No one I know voted for him.”
