15. He's Tired Of Being A Token...

His role at faux is not only being a "librul" foil but also the "token" who is trotted out to justify anything and everything racial. Just as Geraldo represents Hispanics, Juan is there to get beat up about such controversial matters as the "New" black panthers and how MLK was actually a rushpublican. At NPR he dealt with real world topics and was treated as a peer where on faux he's a cartoon character and prop...and no matter of money seems to make the sting go away. Juan...you made this bed...sleep well my friend...
