They took a serious left turn right after the first of the year. It was *very* noticeable. They haven't gone back. It sucks.
They might be trying to plow CNN under by attracting what’s left of their audience by being more “moderate” in the views expressed. Lou Dobbs got cranked up on FBN last night and some of his CNN buddies showed up with him.
They are first and foremost a business and care about the bottom line and beating the competition more than anything.
If we want a real conservative network, we’re going to have to start one ourselves, if such a thing is possible.
Juan, self-serving, self-righteous thinking is the very essence of liberalism and it was the brand of NPR from the beginning.
His points are boilerplate liberal socialist thinking: "It's not the system that flawed, it's just that the wrong people are running it."
Have you ever seen such metrosexuality in your life?
Or maybe Schiller is just an all the way queer.
bwa ha ha ha!!!
I don’t know the first thing about Williams but if I had to guess I’d say he is from a liberal family, got a liberal education, and has a very liberal circle of friends. I am also sure that he thinks they are all wonderful people.
When part of his lefty crowd decides he is unnecessary and backstabs him, he acts stunned and amazed.
We understand that “a tiger will be a tiger,” as Rush sometimes says but Juan hasn’t quite figured that out yet.
Neither have millions of Zer0 voters who are sooo shocked that the country continues in a downhill slide under THEIR boy. That compassionate, brilliant, forward thinking, messianic Obama. /s
I think that OKeefe did a brilliant job but I’m just wondering what they would have said to a group of TEA partiers who wanted to pay big bucks for favorable treatment.
They seem like a money hungry bunch to me.
If the price were right, I’d bet they’d swallow their lefty “scruples.”
A lot of folks, elitists, black racists, Marxists, liberals, Nation of Islam, etc,
felt “empowered” by the election of Barky,
and felt free and safe to “strut their stuff”, or show their true colors.
The deal with elitism is that it is a belief that the elites (invariably the elitIST considers himself one) have enough intellect and morality to make decisions for everyone else. It’s obvious to the casual observer, however, that these people couldn’t poor pee out of a boot with the instructions written on the heel.
This story isn’t about NPR, it’s about Juan Williams getting fired. Juan would be singing the praises of NPR had he not been fired. He is simply a liberal who has been mugged. He is still a liberal.
Take away the “self serving, self righteous thinking” from a liberal and you have an empty shell.
There is no other reason to call oneself a liberal than to flaunt your arrogance.
And when they screw up they become offended at you saying "well nobody's perfect" and absolve themselves of all guilt.
Slime.
The recent videotape showing NPR chief fund-raiser Ron Schiller (no relation to Vivian Schiller) is just an open microphone on what I've been hearing from NPR top executives and editors for years.Well, Juan, if it's so objectionable now, why wasn't it equally objectionable for all those years that you listened to it?
I guess it all depends on whose ox is being gored.
Gee, Juan is being just like a Democrat politician. Maybe that will be his future.
Because then he was part of the club. Then he was smarter than we were. Then he was better than we were. Now he's better than they are. And so are we.
See how that works? /s
When Juan got canned, I thought he was acting like a petulant child who just had a favorite toy taken away from him.
He is still acting that way as far as I can see.
But that reflects the typical liberal maturation level, doesn’t it?
Over a year ago I listened to NPR, had to change the channel after a couple of minutes. What turned me off besides the liberalism ? The condescending attitudes of those talking !
It’s their snooty monotone.
I’ll bet they have to take a class in it before going on the air.
Oh yeah, he is a homo activist. He has a partner.
