NPR CEO sorry for how she handled Juan Williams firing – This Just In - CNN.com Blogs

That is almost laughable. She's sorry that his firing didn't look so good, that they didn't meet with him personally...and she promises that NPR is all about integrity.

She should of put a little asterisk at the bottom

*and I promise George Soros didn't pay me to say this

I think this article gives a even clearer picture of Vivian Schiller mindset and makes her actions in regard to Juan Williams even more disturbing.

NPR CEO Vivian Schiller Key Architect of FCC Govt Takeover of the News - Tara Servatius - Townhall Conservative

A May Free Press report describes NPR’s Public Media Platform as a first step in their plans for a government media takeover. The platform is in the early stages, and its purpose is to attract billions more in government funding. “We are going to strengthen and bolster our representation to Congress and to other entities that can help fund all of us,” Schiller told the NPR board in her 2009 speech about a public media takeover of news reporting.

The word 'takeover' has got to be one of the most over-used, fear-mongering words used by the right. Can't they be more original?

Thanks, I needed a dose of hysteria and over-reacting today.
