What does statements made on another show have to do with editorial standards?

NPR must be in charge of Fox editorial standards.

There are people who think Soros and the left are beyond the pale besides Coadie, I'm one of them.

Soros will give millions to hire reporters at NPR. I suspect they will be free top report what is in Soros' interest.

He's buying the media and anything else he can get his grubby hands on that will help his cause.
He's a tool of satan...what a pity all that money going to waste, he'll have some answering to do one day.

These people would have had their heads explode during WWII, PC hadn't been invented yet...thank God. It's probably why that war was done in four years.

Soros is the big donor now at NPR

That should be troubling to any clear thinking person.
But, the leftist media will ignore it.
Now, if it was a right wing donor giving to the GOVERNMENT radio program they would be screaming bloody blue murder.
The money he has donated is to pay the salary of 1,000 reporters!

Adding jobs is a virtue. That is the biggest stunt since hiring census workers.
1,000 sock puppets for the state controlled media what's not to like?

In addition, Schiller released a statement about the firing to NPR member stations on Thursday. In it, she wrote that "this isn't the first time we have had serious concerns about some of Juan's public comments. Despite many conversations and warnings over the years, Juan has continued to violate this principle." Schiller also wrote that Williams had violated NPR's code of ethics by expressing views that he would not have expressed on NPR.

"Unfortunately, Juan's comments on Fox violated our standards as well as our values and offended many in doing so," she said.

Smearing a fired worker in public is illegal. It is done by idiots. An employer has to have a signed consent from a former workerr to even release a reference check.

It's time NPR gets defunded. They don't need our money now that Soros will be their sugar daddy....what a sickening thought.
