Speaking to the media, Schiller stated Williams was not fired for that particular incident, but for offering his controversial opinions on several occasions which she deemed a breach of journalistic ethics for an NPR analyst.
Schiller intensified the existing controversy over Williams' dismissal when she added that Williams should have kept his Muslim comments between himself and "his psychiatrist or his publicist take your pick." Schiller quickly retracted her own remarks, stating, "I spoke hastily and I apologize to Juan and others for my thoughtless remark."
