Why was Juan Williams against what was done to Thomas? Did/does he know him personally?
I have no idea. You'd have to watch the video as Orrin Hatch reads the whole article that Williams wrote. And Hatch clearly said that although Williams is not of the same political beliefs, that at least he gets it. Hatch back then said Williams was a "great journalist." In the Pirro - Williams video, Williams is bad-mouthing Hatch because he said Ramirez's allegations were phony. I doubt Senator Hatch would call Juan Williams a "great journalist" today.
