Born and Bred in South Central LA. I spent 12 years working in the IT Dept. for federal contractor Northrop-Grumman on classified and high security projects such as the B2 Bomber. After Northrop I became an IT consultant with the state of California in Sacramento and worked on projects with the Dept of Consumer Affairs and CalTrans, as well as projects for Kaiser Permanente in Oakland. Now living in Los Angeles with my own independant web design company where I operate the Truth 2 Power Online Radio Station.
1. Juan Williams is a hired Republican operative or at least a "Republican Apologist" ( as well a classic Uncle Tom! )
2. Shame on you for even tuning into FOX! Even if you aren't watching the sewage they spew - by tuning your set to their channel you add to their viewer stats.
Educate yourself about how TV programming works: the business model is designed to deliver viewers (you) TO the advertisers, all that crap (any crap, they don't care) between commercial blocks is the "bait." The more sets they have tuned to, nibbling at, their "bait" - the more they can charge for delivering viewers to the advertiser's messages.
There is a huge business keeping track (search Nielsen or Arbitron for example) of what your TV or radio is tuned to - even if you're not watching or paying attention to it.
You want to hurt FOX? Block them.

Juan Williams works at Fox News; therefore he receives a paycheck from them. Nothing wrong with that. I supposedly could sneer at Keith Olbermann, "well' you're just on the MSNBC payroll!" . (Actually, I will never have the chance to sneer at him, because Olbermann never allows criticism on his show.) But such a sneer would make no sense. Olbermann receives a paycheck from MSNBC; that's the free market at work. Side note: Kudos to Michelle Malkin for keeping the flashlight on hate sites like Daily Kos and Democratic Underground.

But Juan Williams at least offers a different opinion from the usual neoclowns on "False Noise Sunday", and he sometimes wins. Better than these Rethugs going completely unchallenged! That's why it and "False Noise Watch" are the only shows I watch on that network.
