A new analysis of political signs displayed at a tea party rally in
Washington last month reveals that the vast majority of activists expressed
narrow concerns about the government's economic and spending policies and
steered clear of the racially charged anti-Obama messages that have helped
define some media coverage of such events.

Facebook page Thursday afternoon to call for NPR’s defunding.
“National Public Radio

Of the thousands of complaints that have saturated NPR in the wake of Juan
Williams’s firing earlier this week, some of the most telling have been
from callers describing themselves as long-time “viewers” of NPR who warn
that they are going to “stop watching.”
NPR, of course, does not have viewers, it has listeners. But the public
radio organization has come under severe criticism — largely from people
who are not listeners, it believes — for having fired Mr. Williams, an
