I'm not only disppointed with NPR, which fell into a trap
every bit as big as the Obama folk did with the Shirley
Sherrod case - or that the Israelis did with that "flotilla",
but even someone who'd I'd have thought knew better...
got kind of onboard.
Rachel "best political anchor on television" Maddow, in
her broadcast yesterday, emphasized that this was in no
way, shape, or form, a "freedom of speech" issue as
the first Amendment applies to gov't.
True enough, but with NPR getting a small (five percent?)
of its funding from tax money, it ain't so obvious.
NPR and its gal blew it. badly. And is giving the RWEC
all teh ammo it needs this week.
Kind of like how Mark Furman helped the OJ defense.
