How NPR Spends Our Money on Lady GaGa Interpretations by Nina Totenberg

Want to see NPR's Nina Totenberg and Robert Siegel "interpret" former stripper Lady GaGa? Didn't think so. Nevertheless, you need to know that taxpayers funded this embarrassing video.

Lady GaGa in Nude Leotard?

Lady GaGa comes from a wealthy Italian family, but ran away early on and started stripping to be able to support herself. Then she started writing songs for artists like Britney Spears and the Pussycat Dolls when she decided to take a piece of the pie by herself.

Krauthammer Slams NPR Pet Nina Totenberg: Britt Hume on Juan Williams Firing

NPR crone Nina Totenberg sits one seat away from Charles Krauthammer on the set of Inside Washington, as he asks why NPR did not fire Totenberg along with Juan Williams. Juan made the mammoth PC mistake of saying he gets nervous on airplanes when Muslims-in-garb are on the plane. Totenberg once said the "Good Lord" must be considering Jessie Helms, and maybe Helms or his grandchildren will get AIDS. Nina escaped the crude "mobile-firing - or any firing at all,  Juan didn't. See the video below.

Nina Totenberg

Totenberg's actual quote from NewsBusters:

TOTENBERG: I think he ought to be worried about what's going on in the Good Lord's mind, because if there is retributive justice, he'll get AIDS from a transfusion, or one of his grandchildren will get it.

Krauthammer to Nina:

And I don't understand the inconsistency here. Why is it okay for Nina to express opinions, as she has tartly, sharply, unashamedly and openly, and she’s an honored correspondent there? In fact, they mention your status here on this show in your biography at NPR. And Juan, because he expresses his opinions, gets canned from NPR. That’s what the CEO said yesterday. In fact, the standard ought to be lower in the case of Juan because he’s an analyst, whereas Nina is a correspondent.

Totenberg drones on in response along with other panelists. Krauthammer keeps asking why Juan Williams was singled-out, and ends with:

This is all highfalutin journalistic theory. 

Most journalism these days is 'highfalutin,' but not from Andrew McCarthy who points out the real problem with Juan's firing is not Juan's firing. The real problem is our funding of NPR:

Why does a country that is trillions in debt, and in which people have unlimited options for obtaining information, need NPR? More to the point, why do we need to fund the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which keeps NPR afloat? 

And let's not forget the National Endowment for the Arts who gives many millions ($155M) to NPR each year, along with CPB's $400M.

If you haven't had enough yet, take a look at this video and how NPR spends the taxpayer's money.

Vivian Schiller Juan Williams: Schiller Apologizes to Williams: Disagree with a Liberal They Call You a Psyche Case

NPR CEO Vivian Schiller apologized to Juan Williams today (but not to his face or by phone, fax, text or email) - she apparently spoke the words in to the air. The apology comes after Schiller said "Williams should have kept his feelings about Muslims between himself and "his psychiatrist or his publicist." When Liberals disagree they always call you names, like a nut case or a psyche case...and we pay them to do it!

Defund NPR - NOW! Juan Williams Fired for Speaking the Truth

I can't defend Juan Williams much. I think he is a Democrat pawn, but paid to be Liberal. The man isn't dumb, so I think he could easily be a Conservative. But...NPR fired him for saying this on the The Factor with Bill O'Reilly:

Juan Williams

O'Reilly: “The cold truth is that in the world today jihad, aided and abetted by some Muslim nations, is the biggest threat on the planet.”

Williams: “I mean, look, Bill, I’m not a bigot. You know the kind of books I’ve written about the civil rights movement in this country. But when I get on the plane, I got to tell you, if I see people who are in Muslim garb and I think, you know, they are identifying themselves first and foremost as Muslims, I get worried. I get nervous.” Source

National Public Radio is publicly funded. You hear little to nothing conservative on NPR. Trying to dispute NPR's Liberal-bent, UCLA researchers found that NPR hardly differs from the average mainstream news outlet. No joke! The average mainstream new outlet is as Liberal as heck. NPR complained that Williams says one thing on-air with them, and something completely different on Fox.

Now I expect his schedule to be tripled on Fox. Arrggggh!

Taxpayers should not be funding NPR. Is there anything out there conservative that taxpayers fund? I didn't think so.
