In Video: NPR Exec Slams Tea Party, Questions Need For Federal Funds

"We are appalled by the comments made by Ron Schiller in the video, which are contrary to what NPR stands for."

"Mr. Schiller announced last week that he is leaving NPR for another job."

Schiller committed the most deadly sin: Endangering NPR's government pipeline from the taxpayer's wallet.

Rancid slurs against the Tea Party, etc., were one thing, but to say that NPR would be better off without Federal funds was a couple of bridges too far, too contrary to what NPR stands for, which is Federal funding.

Adios, Schiller!
