Juan Williams on NPR Management
— rdbrewer

Last night, Juan Williams was unusually animated in his discussion of NPR with Sean Hannity. You can tell, he is still a bit stung by his treatment. He hammers NPR management repeatedly. The popcorn-worthy interview is below the fold.

Updated: The video of the interview at Mediaite was truncated. I replaced it with the full video from Fox News. (Skip to 1:55.) Part 1:

Part 2:

The big story this week: Obama hair is turning gray!

3 I watched this earlier this morning. I'm glad Juan sees what was happening at NPR but it took something happening to him personally for it to sink in.

I had to disable my ad killer to watch the video. It's worth it.

10 Has anyone noticed that, in addition to being a bit of an asshole and an anti-intellectual populist shill, Sean Hannity has a really stupid looking haircut?

Pretty much. Everyone else is just being paranoid until you find one of those pods growing in your back yard.

12 I swapped-out the video. The original one was shortened for some reason.

Worth a watch.

13 Why do I think Juan is doing a touchdown victory dance in his office?

I would guess if his smile gets any bigger his head's gonna fall off.

Well, good for him. He has never been a fire-breather and he's not been a blindered consistent ideologue like Eleanor Clift. (she's like a weather vane; pointing due liberal).

So I never understood the value of NPR attacking him.

Of course NOW we see why.

Not only does NPR have a leftist/liberal bias but it's also anti-american and anti-semitic and will do pretty much anything for money.

Gee, who else do we now like that on the left?

14 Sean Hannity has a really stupid looking haircut?

I can't sand the SOB. His "My friend..." & "Your a great American..." galk!

I want Darth Vader with an Attitude chocking libtards off as they drop to the floor. But that's just me.

15 I disagree with Juan Williams on 90% of what he says (the fact that I agree with 10% tells you that he's not nearly as lockstep as the majority of liberal commentators), but I don't have to hate him for it. I've always liked him personally, I liked him even more after he got shitcanned from NPR, and I'm loving his vindication this week. I bet he is, too.

As much as Juan is seeing the light with respect to his fellow liberals, the man went full retard a long time ago. Just because we're telling him "I told you so!", doesn't mean he's actually changed any of his positions. If the libs at NPR were wrong, then it stands to reason that other lib positions may be wrong. Unfortunately, Juan won't/can't make that connection.

17 Just how the is hell firing THREE peoples from
NPR going to help my unemployment numbers?

18 I believe He is coming to see the hypocrisy , bigotry of the left, He mentioned how eyeopening it is like a facemask being pulled off and you see Them for who they are.. He also admitted This sounds like Obama's thinking and He is an elitist.

19 You say you got a real solution
Well, you know
We'd all love to see the plan
You ask me for a contribution
Well, you know
We're doing what we can
But when you want money
for people with minds that hate
All I can tell is brother you have to wait
Don't you know it's gonna be all right

20 Reminds me of the Jewish guy who's brother got killed in Georgetown by a thug and he became a big conservative. Started going to colleges, WTF is his name. Started an organization to call out liberals?

Help me here. Want to say Hammerstein or something?

23 What's this shit about Joos owning newspapers?

I might have to write about this in the Sunday Magazine.

24 The problem is that Dave Weigel was right: Ronald Schiller was doing a masterful job of pandering. Mr. Schiller acted and spoke like a masterful salesman. He was selling something to the fictional MEAC, access to NPR airwaves and listeners.

Now whether MEAC's policy of spreading bigoted, backward Sharia would have ultimately made its way to NPR airwaves and listeners remains unclear. It's quite possible that NPR would ultimately refuse the donation.

But during the initial negotiations as portrayed in the video, Mr. Schiller is certainly selling the idea that NPR is sympathetic to MEAC's policies, and that access to NPR's airwaves should be something valuable to MEAC and its goals.

25 Wait.. you mean MediaIte heavily edited William's statements?

Posted by: Dave C at March 09, 2011 09:22 AM (5OSzu)

26 I still don't trust him...he's got lifeless eyes. Black eyes. Like a doll's eyes. When he comes at ya, he doesn't even seem to be livin'... 'til he bites ya, and those black eyes roll over white and then... ah then you hear that terrible high-pitched screamin'

28 Did Juan have a bag over his head and his fingers in his ears while he was over at NPR? I can't believe all of this went on without him seeing it or hearing it.

Posted by: JayBee at March 09, 2011 09:59 AM (kX5hh)

29 Yes 28. Amazing that Juan spent all of those years at NPR but now he's suddenly shocked, shocked there's elitist antisemitism going on at NPR.

30 Assistant Producer, National Desk NPR

Proven ability to consistently work well with others, demonstrating at all times respect for the diverse constituencies at NPR and within the public radio system.

---

According to Psychiatric Quarterly those groups encompassing "diverse constituencies" within a PSO are:

clients, donors and professionals

conservatives need not apply.

31 KICK THEM IN THE NUTS, JUAN!

32 Well Juan, they always did say they loved you and promised not to slap you around ever again. It wasn't you, it was them.

33 I'm glad Juan sees what was happening at NPR but it took something happening to him personally for it to sink in.

-----------------

Well, that's Juan in a nutshell. It's always entertaining to watch him on Special Report trying to desperately contort his argument to fit whatever emotional reaction he's having to the issue. Not a rigorous logician.

34 Juan Williams is no Ellis Henican... thank God. I have always appreciated Juan's input (despite how wrong I thought he was). Ellis get my dander up; he is unwatchable.
