In a remarkable bit of undercover film, NPR gets royally busted as an elitist and extremely biased media source. Big surprise, huh?
The video clip "stars" Ron Schiller, President of the NPR Foundation and Senior Vice-President of National Public Radio, having a luncheon with two men whom he believes are members of a Muslim Brotherhood front group and who are ready to donate a few million dollars to NPR coffers. Also present is Betsy Liley, Senior Director of NPR's Institutional Giving.
But it is Schiller whose remarks are the most shocking -- even to those conservatives who are aware of NPR's longtime liberal slant. Indeed, what this fellow says about Americans, Jews, Christians, the need for an educated elite, Republicans, the Tea Party, and more will curl the hair of liberals too. For liberals may be used to saying these kinds of things among themselves. But they loathe it when their true opinions get a public airing like they do here.
Of course, you'll see that Schiller's lines are the most laughable when he starts dissing Juan Williams. Schiller explains that NPR's "feeling is that if a person expresses his or her opinion...they are compromised as a journalist. They can no longer fairly report." Well, watch the tape and you'll hear Schiller express views that are more sinister, more despicable and more offensive to more persons than anything Juan Williams ever dreamed of saying.
You've got to pass this one around. And, as you do, also pass along your hope that people will contact their Congressmen and Senators with a demand that the taxpayer funding of NPR be ended ASAP. If there was ever any doubt of the extreme leftist bias of NPR, it's certainly been exposed now.
