NPR executives caught on tape bashing conservatives and Tea Party, touting liberals
The Daily Caller ^ | 03/08/2011 | Matthew Boyle

A man who appears to be a National Public Radio senior executive, Ron Schiller, has been captured on camera savaging conservatives and the Tea Party movement.

“The current Republican Party, particularly the Tea Party, is fanatically involved in people’s personal lives and very fundamental Christian – I wouldn’t even call it Christian. It’s this weird evangelical kind of move,” declared Schiller, who runs NPR’s foundation.

In a new video released Tuesday morning by conservative filmmaker James O’Keefe, Schiller and Betsy Liley, NPR’s director of institutional giving, are seen meeting with two men who, unbeknownst to the NPR executives, are posing as members of a Muslim Brotherhood front group. The men, who identified themselves as Ibrahim Kasaam and Amir Malik from the fictitious Muslim Education Action Center (MEAC) Trust, met with Schiller and Liley at Café Milano, a well-known Georgetown restaurant, and explained their desire to give to $5 million to NPR because, “the Zionist coverage is quite substantial elsewhere.”

Just de-fund NPR and let a commercial enterprise do what they have failed to do. People said for a generation that without NPR there would be no ‘Educational Programming’ - ummm, how about Discovery, National Geographic, History Channel, Military Channel and the Nature Channel.

Discovery: Only Mythbusters marathons now. Although I also really like Flying Wild Alaska. National Geographic: Really like the program where they examine air accidents and look at why they happened--it helps create a safer atmosphere. History: Was once great but now forgets who it is and is trying to be the new TLC/Discovery with only reality shows now, UFO programs, or programs that seem dedicated to proving Christianity a farce and that Jesus actually came from a UFO. Military Channel: Favorite... hands down.

That little fruit loop schiller is laughable as to how he so effeminately butters his bread and takes a girlish bite. Freaking moonbats are such wimps.

Just did a quick scan of a wacko left site (DK), and they're pretty much adhering to the talking points that the Tea Party is indeed Racist and/or attacking the messenger (O’Keefe).

But then again, they're acting as they always do, being good Socialist Drones just saying what their told to say and think.

You know, as much fun as this “punk” is, all we get out of it as tax payers is the opportunity to say “Aha! We knew it all the time!” Nobody is going to step up, defund the damn thing and keep it from happening again. Just some noise from Cantor, etc, no action...
Get RID of the funding of NPR, Pub TV, CSPAN, Planned Parenthood, etc. or we are no better than the dopes who are part of unions, having their dues used “against” them if they are conservatives...
This is pure extortion of the tax payers...and I, for one, am SICK AND TIRED OF IT!!!!!!!
*deep sigh* Rant Over

Is Jim Robinson taking tax dollars to operate this site? Could you imagine the outrage from the socialists? Mr. Robinson (and real Freepers) wouldn’t allow it to begin with. You really don’t see a difference?

Most people do NOT know how liberals talk in private. I'm sure there's many a Jew today who is scratching his head in total disbelief over these tapes.

What the NPR people said about conservatives is mild - they weren't talking to friends... it was a lunch - in a public place - with strangers. You get a liberal alone and it's 'katie bar the door' time. These folks are prejudiced - and hateful. And extremely closed minded about anything outside their narrow little belief system. Most of them have never met a member of the Tea Party or a conservative. They get "letters" from so called conservatives - written by liberals in war rooms - and that's their impression of us...

Fifty years ago most of the narrow minded 'liberals' would have been standing with the KKK... they're 'no think - we believe - don't dare confuse us with facts' types. Ignorant - and proud of it and afraid of people who are different than they are...

I think a perfect example of the “thought process” of libs was the secret taping of Obama and the “bitter clinger” comment...typical and very illustrative of our sitting prez’s thinking...elitist clap-trap...

You're right - that comment of Obama's was in the same vein... Liberal elites talk that way - and worse - when they're together...

My morning paper ran a little thing on the O'Keefe sting - they left out the part about Muslim Brotherhood and bashing Jews. They made out like the people at NPR had to resign because they offended the Tea Party.

The reason NPR executives resigned was because of positions taken relative to potential Muslim Terrorists - showcased by their purported association with the Muslim Brotherhood ( a known terrorists organization) And Antisemitism. Liberal Jews donate big money to organizations like NPR - and that was a concern. If anyone believes liberal elites are worried about what they say about Tea Party members, I've got bridge to sell them.
