I personally don't think they should have fired Juan Williams, he was right and Bill O Reilly was wrong. His notion of being scared seeing men in Muslim garb is misguided, because the men who committed the destruction of 9/11 were not wearing Muslim garb, one was wearing a United States Military Uniform!

So, should NPR continue to be tax payer funded? I certainly don't think so, it would be a very easy thing to cut in these hard economic times, especially now that they have appeared to violate political correctness.
I personally don't mind Juan being fired at all mostly because it lead to the NPR taking flack it rightfully deserved! The main reason for his firing was his affiliation with fox but the comments was their calling card. What he described was genuine natural feelings that an ordinary person would feel...and he was battered by the political correct nazis. Must we forsake true genuine feelings for some faux false sense of righteousness??

Anyway the real loser is NPR. Williams, their most objective analyst was fired and has a Job at fox, their credibility was threatened in a matter of days, and they just received a bomb threat I believe. LOL, they are really having a bad week, and I'm loving it...
