You mean Fidel Castro but great point! OSM/Proctors/Mercury Morris is a complete scam. They let that idiot Morris {salary undisclosed} destroy Channel 16. The DEMS don't want you to watch the sausage making. Control the media-they have the rag Gazetto in the bag-they made Channel 16 unwatchable-who's next?


Just another 'government controlled' 'brainwashing' 'taxpaid' liberal media outlet!
NO NEWS MEDIA OUTLET SHOULD BE CONTROLLED BY THE GOVERNMENT OR PAID FOR BY THE TAXPAYERS!!!
IMHO!

Especially in this poorly run County. These DEM idiots can't site a new County Home, they hand out tax giveaways like candy but have money to dump into the OSM/Proctor's/Mercury Morris cesspool.

      No wonder the City has to layoff 19 fire fighters and close the vital Bellevue Firehouse. But the DEMS have money to give a golf pro $314,000 and dump thousands into useless DSIC. Sheeple are starting to wake up that all the tax giveaways mean that homeowners and other County business people have to make up the difference.

NPR Boss Who Fired Juan Williams Resigns
Published January 06, 2011 | FoxNews.com

The NPR executive who sparked a public outrcy in October by firing journalist Juan Williams is resigning from her job, the organization announced Thursday.

Ellen Weiss resigned as senior vice president for news on the same day that NPR's board of directors completed its independent review of the dismissal of Williams. The directors recommended new internal procedures for personnel decisions and disciplinary action.

The board expressed confidence in CEO Vivian Schiller's leadership but voted to forgo her 2010 bonus because of "concern over her role in the termination process." Schiller drew criticism in November for saying Williams should keep his feelings about Muslims between him and "his psychiatrist or publicist" -- comments that she later apologized for.

Williams, who is a Fox News contributor, cheered the announcement.

"It's good news for NPR if they can get someone who is the keeper of the flame of liberal orthodoxy out of NPR," he told Fox News, which gave Williams a bigger role in the wake of his firing.

"She had an executioner's knife for anybody who didn't abide by her way of thinking," he said. "And I think she represented a very ingrown, incestuous culture in that institution that's not open to not only different ways of thinking, but angry at the fact that I would even talk or be on Fox."....................>>>>...............>>>>....................http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2011/01/06/npr-boss-fired-juan-williams-resigns/
