They do. That's exactly what's being pointed out. NPR fired Juan Williams for example because he's a liberal but doesn't toe the line completely. He works for Fox. MSNBC is extremely liberal but doesn't hire minorities and people are asking why.

Same with NPR. They exemplify the liberals' soft bigotry of low expectations and vision of the anointed in practice.

"Tom Sowell's new book, 'The Vision of the Anointed,' argues that the assumptions and beliefs of America's liberal elite have created 30 years of disaster in education, crime and welfare policy."
