NPR has a responsibility to not kowtow to the enemy.

I couldn’t help but to add my two cents to the NPR website-——

It is stuff like this that turned me from a liberal to a conservative. As a Black man I have found that far too many liberals like the ones who work for this network can be very condescending. There is a very pervasive tendency for liberals to think minorities are too stupid to think for themselves and have to be led around by the nose. When a minority goes against the grain of typical liberal/progressive thought, they are labeled an “Uncle Tom.” This is one Black man who has escaped from the liberal/progressive plantation!

I also find it interesting that the same day Juan was fired, George Soros donated over a million dollars to NPR. Tell me this is not true!

One of Soros’ claims to fame is during World War Two, he worked for the Nazi’s as a snitch, finding Jews that were hiding. Many ended up in Nazi gas chambers as victime of the Holocost. How much blood is on his hands?

Oh, Please...the only people that would give airtime to the self-important, bloviating, know-nothing, gasbag Daniel Schorr was NPR. No one else would take him seriously. His commentary was always highly opinionated and relatively fact free.

They’re saying he violated a principal! Who is this principal, and what high school does he run? Why haven’t we heard more about this?

Surely the people who run NPR wouldn’t make a third grade English mistake, and mix up “principle” and “principal”! Would they?

It is telling that lib-turds most fundamental trait is their lack of principles (which, in its self, is ironic).

More lies and BS by a corrupt and incompetent organization. In line with their basic agenda of lies, bias and half truths.

Juan Williams should have known better, you're only supposed to get worried about muslims when they begin shouting "Allah Akbar" and not one second before.(sarc)

Heads up, Mara and Cokie better stick to the facts.

No commentary. No speculation. No FOX News.

News analysts may not take personal public positions on controversial issues; doing so undermines their credibility as analysts, and that’s what’s happened in this situation.

Juan has been giving opinions like, what, forever? Didn't NPR realize this when they hired him? Or was their intent simply to fill in a diversity check box or worse, try to muzzle Juan in other venues with their so-called public positions prohibition.

As far as Juan's analyst versus commentator role, what exactly was his qualification as an analyst other than his race? Was he not always a commentator??? Sounds like they had to fish around for an excuse for a PC firing and came up short.

Next step, analyze the commentary of their other "analysts" and prove the lie.

"Second, this isn’t the first time we have had serious concerns about some of Juan’s public comments. Despite many conversations and warnings over the years, Juan has continued to violate this principal." [sic]
Thanks,
Vivian Schiller
President & CEO, NPR

Tell me nobody is really this stupid. The crux of the entire memo, and she can't even spell it right.

Plus you look like you ate a booger, Viv. Maybe try washing your hair some week.

More from booger-eating (anonymous sources tell me) 3rd-grade spelling bee champ & NPR CEO Viv: "We’re profoundly sorry that this happened during fundraising week."

Yea, we're sorry about that too, but when we defund you shortly you might want to think about extending that to a year. Shouldn't be too much problem -- you already look like you get up half an hour before you go to bed.
