"NPR vs Fox News" Battle Begins with Juan Williams, Bill O'Reilly

NPR vs Fox News battle begins with Juan Williams and Bill O'Reilly. You see, Bill O'Reilly had Juan Williams on Fox News after O'Reilly appeared on "The View" and angered two hosts of the show who subsequently walked off. Williams discussed the event with O'Reilly and in the end ended up getting fired.

Now there's a big discussion over NPR and Fox News. NPR is National Public Radio - a publicly funded news organization. After the incident in which Juan lost his job was made public, there's been an outcry to end public funding of the news organization. In addition, the organization recently received a huge influx of resources from a well known liberal Billionaire George Soros.

On the other hand, Fox has been the "black sheep" of the news world. It's typically conservatively slanted news, and the commentators have a typically unfavorable view of the current administration. Glenn Beck, Bill O'Reilly, and several other commentators are typically very divisive individuals.

The difference between Fox News and NPR is that Fox news receives no federal funding. NPR is paid by taxpayers to be unbiased.

Where do you stand on the NPR vs Fox News arguments?
