    this is why it is good that we have fox news. they are gonna ride this hard, and that is great. we need to continue battling to creat an environment where people are not punished for honesty. i hope bill O absolutely murders NPR, and i know he will.

    This was a very stupid move by NPR. I enjoy hearing his take on the world, don't always agree with it but he seems to always be level headed and well informed.

    yes, the last thing we want anyone to do is admit to anything or be honest. wouldnt want to ever really discuss anything.

    100% chance the guy who fired him is scared of the muslim on the plane.

    i know when a hardcore muslim guy is on the plane i am watching that mofo hard.

    Juan Williams is a liberal but he's also a realist. I disagree with a lot of his stuff but I don't "turn him off" because is is not an idealogue.

    This happened during NPR's beg-a-thon. I sincerely hope they lose a lot of contributions. It wouldn't affect my life one bit.

    Anyone who doesn't think the way of the extreme left is a terrorist in their eyes, way to sensor those who think outside the box. Only 2 more years of this BS then things can get back to normal.

    The only time I ever hear NPR is while riding in a cab in Washington, DC. It seems a large percentage of the drivers listen on a regular basis.

    Anybody want to take a stab at the demographics of the average DC cab operator?
