Is NPR Fair & Balanced?


This is fascinating. NPR is upset with their national correspondent, Mara Liasson, for appearing (for a decade now) on Fox News. As you probably know, she's a regular on Fox News Special Report, formerly with Brit Hume, now with Bret Baier. She's also a regular panelist on FOX News Sunday with Chris Wallace.

You really have to read the below account from Politico.com to believe it. To draw a pretty fair and balanced analogy, I would equate this to Janeane Garofalo calling Laura Bush crude.
