"The public is not entitled to a particular political belief system among the recipients of tax payer dollars, just to the scrupulously fair airing of all views. CSPAN’s hosts for Washington Journal are impeccably even-handed in their questioning of liberal and conservative guests. Despite the regular, predictable, and paranoid ranting of conservative callers accusing CSPAN of stiffing conservative entities and individuals, CSPAN is absolutely balanced in its coverage of political viewpoints. But it could well be that some of its hosts believe that the Tea Party is racist, or that Obama is a socialist. Who cares? In believing so, they would merely reflect positions that are present in the public." -Heather McDonald, conservative blogger at Secular Right, discussing the manufactured, non-scandal at NPR (h/t Daily Dish)
