CEO Vivian Schiller and news chief Ellen Weiss have both warned their
staff, particularly in news, that it would be a big ethics violation
to have signs or Facebook photos supporting the Comedy Central
clambake at the Capital Mall on Oct. 30, or to show up at the event
unless to cover it:

Of course, this wouldn't be a problem if this was the Lonesome Rhodes
Beck gathering.  However, one wonders the murmurings if Garrison
Kellior (who doesn't work for NPR, but people think he does) steps on
the podium on Oct. 30 or if Terry Gross does (not an NPR employee, but
syndicated by NPR).  I'm wondering if the regular "Wait, Wait...Don't
Tell Me!" panelists have received personal memos not to go to the
Stewart/Colbert rallies.
