If NPR is trying demonstrate in the wake of the video scandal that it embraces a diversity of viewpoints and is not the left-wing outlet it has been portrayed to be, its first move after the resignation of president and CEO Vivian Schiller isn’t a particularly good start.
After Schiller announced her resignation on Wednesday, the NPR Board of Directors promptly named Joyce Slocum as NPR’s interim CEO. According to a statement from NPR, Slocum’s appointment was part of a CEO succession plan adopted by the Board in 2009. Slocum, however, appears to be just another Democrat.
According to data from the Center for Responsive Politics website OpenSecrets.org, Slocum has donated $3,480 dating back to 1999 – all to Democratic candidates:

“Surprise: New NPR interim CEO a Democratic political contributor”
Meet the new boss....
Same as the old boss.
Maybe she brought them Slushies.
I took a look at the Texas state campaign database, and Slocum’s one recorded campaign contribution was to “Richard S. Friedman.” Yes, that’s “Kinky” Friedman.
Libs are the essence of fairness and balance.
If you stupid racists weren’t so ignorant, you’d realize that.
Now pay your taxes we’re sorely underfunded.

No, she’s not, but still has that Leftist, that Liberal spaced out look in her eye.
“I am shocked, shocked to find this out!”

The NPR executive who got caught probably doesn't have any conservative friends - he expressed fear of people who are different than he is - and attributed many negative things to us ... He expressed disdain for all Tea Party members, Jews owning newspapers, and almost all conservatives. He painted us with the broad brush of his fears and hatreds.
That's prejudice. And it's ugly.
O'Keefe will be able to cherry pick these folks because they don't mingle with people who aren't 'of their type'...
They probably couldn’t find a republican anywhere in the industry
