The worst part about this is that, as she says, she didn’t even work for NPR.

I have, really, not been very impressed by personnel decisions coming from NPR as of late (This includes how they handled Juan Williams). Ever since then, especially, they’ve been rather sensitive to anything the right wing has tossed out there against someone involved with them. Granted, I understand they’re worried about federal funding for public radio and want to avoid giving any excuses, but I think that concern is misplaced in so much that I’m pretty sure a GOP controlled Congress and White House would find a reason to cut off funding regardless.
