    2 years ago I supported Juan Williams after his firing by NPR. Today, I thoroughly understand why he was fired. He is an absolute "nothing." He is biased by his ego.
    I'm sick of his idiotic arguments against what I consider common sense! His liberal
    viewpoints only result in viewers changing channels. I know that is true, because that is what I do after watching him and listening to him on Fox. It is time for him to retire and talk to himself or write comments like this on websites. Let him go before he hurts Fox's viewer ratings more than he already has!!

    The PC pendulum has been swinging over to the crazy side for way too long and when it swings back, it is going to swing back very hard.

    National Palestinian Radio has lower journalistic standards than Al-Jazeera.

    A man looking at a brown tattoo-neck with MS-13 scribbled on his bald scalp
    A man looking at a black man wearing a hooded sweater, ball cap on sideways and 1/2 his underwear showing

    Threats are perceived in many ways

    Juan Williams is a stand up guy. I do not always agree with his position but I respect him for having it and sharing it publicly. Kudos to Fox for the action they took on his behalf. Fox will be the better for it and it's NPR's loss. Lot's of us out here feel as he does. ALL immigrants are welcome in this country. Come here legally, assimilate, learn the language, pursue your dreams and we'll help you! Come here to try and turn us into the place you fled from and we'll do our best to run you out.

    Like all leftist organizations, NPR only believes in diversity as long as it agrees with their notions. Juan could have been more specific about not knowing if those dressed as Muslims are fanatics or peace-loving, and therefore having anxiety based on 9/11. But this certainly should not have risen to a firing offense in any honest, open-minded organization.

    NPR has the right to fire any employee for any legal reason. It's the same as a Tea Party Spokesman saying that Obama is right and we need more debt. Having said that, I think that Juan has moved into the mainstream of American thinking. Juan, Keep up your good work and go get a new job with some news organization that is Fair and Balanced.

    Boycott NPR and all its affiliated stations. Demand that all public funding be terminated immediately,

    NPR just rang a bell and it cannot be undone. The fallout to NPR will be deserved. What country do they think they operate from?
