In October, NPR fired Juan Williams. For three months NPR conducted a "review," and Ellen Weiss, the SVP who fired Williams, was forced out earlier this month. Finally, the details of her dismissal are coming out. They're troubling.

Yesterday Ellen Weiss, the NPR executive who called Juan Williams to fire him after the once-respected newsman spoke about his fear of airplane passengers in "Muslim garb," resigned. NPR's CEO's also being punished. Who comes out looking worst? Juan Williams.

The "independent review" of NPR's firing of Juan Williams last October has finally(!) wrapped up. The big news: Ellen Weiss, the NPR SVP of news who called Williams to fire him, has resigned. Why?
