Domestic terrorist Bill Ayers on NPR Today, on the usually well-regarded Fresh Air with Terry Gross

(No-Nonsense Nancy submitted a “venting” story, but it is an actual news tip! WTG, intrepid reporter No-Nonsense Nancy! We held this for confirmation but, as the screenshot below shows, Fresh Air finally updated its page. After the show, Nancy will keep an eye on their site, and send us a new story with a link to the audio and, I hope, her impressions of the interview. – Susan)

On Tuesday, Nov. 19th at 3PM — that’s today! — Terri Gross, the typically well-regarded interviewer for NPR, is going to interview Bill Ayers on her Fresh Air show. What is this? I am appalled! First Good Morning America and now NPR, as if he is this good old guy everybody should like. Is he going to get positive press and then worm his way in to the new administration and be accepted by the public? Does it not matter he is an unrepentant terrorist, admitting that he is not only an anarchist but a Marxist? If this is any indication of what to expect after January, I’m more scared than before.
