[QUOTE="island1fox, post: 779755, member: 4816"] Liberal Love ---- We have a very large tent all are welcome -we value and respect all opinions --only if you are left and your opinions are left ??? NPR has an absolute right to say that their analysts cannot give personal opinions. But to only censure and punish some opinions --like Juans --but accept and agee with Liberal or left opinions from an analyst like Cokey Roberts is absurd. I have heard both the right and left --including the ladies of the view condemn this action by NPR. I am rather surprised to hear on the cafe support for this unfair treatment --I do not care if you are right or left -----this was just plain WRONG !!!!:sad-little: Has our country and politics divided us so much that we cannot see what is such an easy call ---no instant replay needed --this was clearly not a home run --not even close to the foul pole !! The fact that Juan was an employee at PBS for over ten years and the only African American analyst that was the only one punished for giving a personal opinion while there are examples after examples of white NPR analysts giving personal opinions but not punished --does not bold well for NPR. Was in all probability not racially motivated but a good lawyer --a nice Liberal one --will easily make the case.:wink2: [/QUOTE]
