AP: NPR CEO Vivian Schiller quits over hidden camera video

AP: N.J. activist James O'Keefe's video shows NPR executive slamming TEA party movement

Attacks by conservatives on NPR gained momentum last year when analyst Juan Williams was fired for saying on Fox News that he feels uncomfortable when he sees people in "Muslim garb" on airplanes. Schiller defends the Williams firing in the video.

The heavily edited video shows (NPR Ron) Schiller and another NPR executive, Betsy Liley, meeting at a pricey restaurant in Washington's Georgetown neighborhood with two men claiming to be part of a Muslim organization. The men offer NPR a $5 million donation....

"The current Republican Party is not really the Republican Party. It's been hijacked by this group that is ... not just Islamophobic but, really, xenophobic," Schiller said in the video, referring to the tea party movement. "They believe in sort of white, middle America, gun-toting — it's scary. They're seriously racist, racist people."…

"It is very clear that we would be better off in the long run without federal funding," Schiller said, saying it would allow the organization to become an independent voice and clear up the misconception that it is largely government-funded.

Schiller conceded that if the funding were lost, "we would have a lot of stations go dark."

Liley says little in the video, although she can be heard laughing when one of the men says his group referred to NPR as "National Palestinian Radio." NPR would not say whether any action was taken to address Liley's comments or appearance in the video….

And then the classic Golden Parachute for the enlightened, conscious and progressive Ron Schiller:

Schiller did not respond to a message left at his Aspen, Colo., home. His resignation from NPR was announced publicly last week, and he has accepted a job as director of the Aspen Institute Arts Program. He is not related to NPR chief executive Vivian Schiller.

Mar 8 2011 -- Project Veritas' latest investigation focuses on the publically-funded media organization, National Public Radio.  PV investigative reporters, Shaughn Adeleye and Simon Templar posed as members of the Muslim Action Education Center, a non-existent group with a goal to "spread the acceptance of Sharia across the world."

In this first video, produced by James O'Keefe, Shaughn and Simon sit down with NPR Foundation President Ron Schiller.

NEW -- National Public Radio: Part II

On Tuesday, Project Veritas released Part 1 of its investigation of National Public Radio.  The investigation, in which Project Veritas investigators posed as members of a fictional group founded by "members of the Muslim Brotherhood," was widely reported in the media and produced a dramatic response from NPR and its board members.

The following video contains conversations between Project Veritas undercover investigator, Simon Templar, and Betsy Liley, NPR's Senior Director of Institutional Giving.
