I am not a sheep, I have my own mind
I have had enough of being told what and how to think
Whilst we are still allowed the remnants of free speech, I will speak out.
I also reserve the right to discuss less controversial matters should I feel the urge.
Contrasting what they say they think when they know they are being listened to and what they say when they think that they are in private
Greg Hengler at Townhall.com compiles the contrasting words given by former NPR CEO Vivian Schiller at her press conference on Monday and the words of former VP of Development Ron Schiller caught on hidden video by Project Veritas.
Something struck me near the end of that video. When the undercover reporter says "There's kind of a joke. We used to call it National Palestinian Radio", Mr Schiller laughs and nods approvingly but Betsy Liley (Senior Director Institutional Giving) says "Oh really? That's good! I like that!" Surely a representative of an unbiased news organisation would find that, if not offensive, then at least inappropriate. Has Betsy Liley been disciplined by NPR for her remarks and if not, why not?
