On the tape, Schiller tells people posing as Muslim philanthropists that the Republican party has been “hijacked” by the Tea Party, which he says is made up of “seriously racist, racist people.” Schiller notes that’s his personal point of view, not that of NPR’s. (At one point, he says, “Now I’ll talk personally as opposed to wearing my NPR hat” and another time, he says “in my personal opinion.”)
