Juan Williams is a liberal or left-of-center commentator who appears regularly on FoxNews. He formerly worked as a columnist for the Washington Post for over 20 years, and, until October 2010, had been employed by National Public Radio as a commentator since 2000. He is the author of "Eyes on The Prize: America's Civil Rights Years, 1954-1965" and "Thurgood Marshall: American Revolutionary".
Williams release from NPR set off a firestorm of controversy over free speech and censorship from a taxpayer funded Government Sponsored Entity. NPR's chief operating officer Vivian Schiller[1] publicly defamed Williams during his firing.
