Juan Williams has been all over Fox News since his firing, but he hasn’t been on an NPR show until today, when he gave a long interview to his longtime friend Diane Rehm.
Politico. com notes, Williams began by explaining the difference between his role at NPR and his role at Fox News, which he called “niche journalism” that had “an express, conservative bent to the way they program, especially in prime time.”
He said that Schiller’s “psychiatrist” comment was “intended to demean me” and to “suggest to the larger audience that this is someone who you can’t trust.”
Rehm interjected that Schiller has since apologized, but Williams argued that she apologized only "to the public."
“There was no attempt to reach out to me in the immediate aftermath of that comment,” he said.
