NPR is a liberal Obama support organization and not deserving of my conservative views that are almost always underrepresented. Pull the plug and let the NE libs support their network. They certainly do not represent me.

Ronald Who?

"The comments contained in the video released today are contrary to everything we stand for,..."

The comments contained in the video released today are COMPLIMENTARY to everything we stand for,..

[SatinDoll]

They’re scared to death at the potential loss, in not just Federal funding, but direct donations from listeners.

A position at MSNBC (GE & Microsoft) surely awaits him...

What do you want to bet that there are more tapes with other people?

The comments contained in the video released today are contrary to everything we stand for, and we completely disavow the views expressed. NPR is fair and open minded about the people we cover.

Pure. Comedy. Gold.

I needed a good laugh to get through the afternoon.

Seriously this person must be deranged to believe this as a fact. This just goes to show you how disconnected from reality NPR and the other liberals are. I have liberal friends and even they complain about the liberal bias at NPR.

>>The entire statement, which also clarifies that Schiller decided to leave before the sting occurred:<<

Clarifies = claimed.

The comments contained in the video released today are contrary to everything we stand for, and we completely disavow the views expressed.

If that were remotely true, the other high-ranking NPR type at the meeting would have strongly objected to him making those statements.

She didn't.

Support James O’Keefe.

Project Veritas Investigates:

NPR
Mar 8 2011

Project Veritas’ latest investigation focuses on the publically-funded media organization, National Public Radio. PV investigative reporters, Shaughn Adeleye and Simon Templar posed as members of the Muslim Action Education Center, a non-existent group with a goal to “spread the acceptance of Sharia across the world.”

In this first video, produced by James O’Keefe, Shaughn and Simon sit down with NPR Foundation President Ron Schiller.

I KNOW folks who listen to them and believe that drivel. One is a SIL. Gullible....all of them.

[hinckley buzzard]

They are worried maybe about House republicans. Their regular donors no doubt overwhelmingly agree with Schiller, would see nothing wrong in what he said and did.

[TribalPrincess2U]

Doesn’t change anything. They still need to be de-funded.

[DarthVader]

SIL? = http://www.artifexcreations.co.uk/sil.htm

Here4’s my problem with the O’Keefe policy of this “gotcha” stuff: it’s a sword that cuts both ways. And I can’t help thinking it’s possible this type of “journalism” will have a backfiring effect of actually engendering sympathy for the target. Maybe not this particular guy, but someone down the road could become sympathetic. NPR needs to be fully defunded. But these underhanded things have a way of reaping some bad karma of the same kind.

The woman needs to be fired too!
