“It appears that the NPR CEO is simply an arrogant left wing SOB with that smug, condescending attitude.”

In other words, a perfect fit for the job.

“In other words, a perfect fit for the job.”

In this woman’s case, she appears to be over qualified for the job when it comes to the self absorbed smug attitude. NPR should be de-funded. Tax payers should not be paying for this political shill of the left.

House Republican Leader John Boehner (Ohio), who could be House speaker next year, said that “it’s reasonable” to examine federal subsidies for NPR, which he called a “left-wing radio network.”

“We need to face facts – our government is broke,” Boehner told the conservative National Review. “Washington is borrowing 37 cents of every dollar it spends from our kids and grandkids. Given that, I think it’s reasonable to ask why Congress is spending taxpayers’ money to support a left-wing radio network – and in the wake of Juan Williams’ firing, it’s clearer than ever that’s what NPR is.”

Conservatives saw the Williams firing as a chance to drive a wedge issue by criticizing media outlets, such as NPR, which they say are too sympathetic to left-wing points of view.
