Double standards

So let me get this right... the NPR CEO quits, because someone who worked under her said some not-so-nice generalizations about "Tea-Partiers", a subset of the right-wing in the US, in a private conversation recorded surrepticiously by a convicted felon, whose team was mis-representing itself.

On the other hand, FOX News' pundits say equal or worse things about "Liberals" as a whole, ON THE AIR, all the time, and get paid for it! And what the NPR guy said about the tea party (that they are "racist"), the FOX News guys get to say about the President of the United States.

I am wondering what we would hear if we taped the private conversations of FOX News executives... or those of any other large organization, at that.
