Juan Williams has a VERY good Wrongful Termination lawsuit. For a company to fire you because you express an opinion without using company property to do so, is a possible violation of one's First Amendment right, and is certainly an legally actionable affair.

It’s a big question as to whether it’s a First Amendment issue, as it’s not obvious that NPR (”please don’t call us National Public Radio”) more like a street corner or more like a real radio station.

I all but tune out JW, so how does BOR introduce him? As a affiliated specifically with NPR, or as a "generic" commentator?
That may be an issue.

Using the liberal’s argument about government and religion, the fact that NPR receives any government funds means firing Juan Williams would amount to the government suppressing free speech.

And our tax dollars will pay for his lawsuit.

He should call the ACLU, I’ll bet they will help him......
If they don’t someplace like the Cato Institute or the Hertitage foundation should help him out just to poke the libs in the eye.
