In Warren's Words
Why Give NPR a Dime?
 The
firing of Juan Williams by NPR reinforces my opinion that NPR is a far left, out
of the main stream, rigidly biased, elitist, self-righteous broadcast enterprise
that represents all that is wrong with American media.
Juan Williams is an outspoken media analyst and
personality that never fails to speak his mind on
any subject. He is a regular contributor on the Fox
network and he is often at odds with his fellow
panelists and a passionate defender of President
Obama. He often argues vigorously with his
colleagues.

In Warren's Words
Racial Seating?
 In
an article recently published in the New York Times, John Edgar Wideman,
a respected African-American writer observed that white people on a commuter
train would invariably avoid sitting next to him because he was a black man.
As a New Yorker who travels extensively on
subways, buses and trains, I found this observation
astonishing. It is impossible for one riding on a
New York subway train or bus to contemplate such a
situation. I would venture to say that the variation
of skin tones is the least important factor in
choosing who one sits next to on a public
conveyance. The available seat is the principal
criteria.
