I'm going to go way out on a limb here and say that California lets an employer consider someone's political views and public statements when deciding whether to employ them as a political commentator.

Odd to see Penske lecturing me about how to run a business and then turn around and say that NPR shouldn't have fired Juan Williams, a man who to the best of my knowledge hasn't uttered an original or interesting thought on the radio in several years, because firing him wasn't fair. Does Penske counsel clients to apply that standard?
