Dylan Byers / Politico: Dan Rather backs Brian Williams why wouldn't he? lol ---- Chuck Ross / The Daily Caller: Brian Williams Told Alec Baldwin He Thought He Was Going To Die During Helicopter Attack That Never Happened hilarious
Williams had already been told to quit lying by the top brass at NBC. What makes Williams’ admission worse, according to one person familiar with the situation, is that he had been counseled in the past by senior NBC News executives to stop telling the story in public. The advice, this person said, was not heeded. One person familiar with current NBC News operations disputed that information. Williams’ version of the story has never been allowed in NBC News programs, according to three people familiar with the unit. Indeed, in a March, 2003, episode of “Dateline,” Williams described the helicopter trip accurately. “On the ground, we learned the Chinook ahead of us was almost blown out of the sky,” he said while narrating a report.

I have always said, ‘I believe you until I can’t believe you any more.’ This may be that case. All we have is our credibility. Once you lose that, your general worth has been lowered.” http://variety.com/2015/tv/news/bri...raises-new-challenge-for-nbc-news-1201425033/
Birds of a feather. No wonder the libtards love these guys. We'll probably hear from our resident loons about battles they fought during the civil war, lol.
Why, I recall the time that Abe Lincoln called me up on my cell phone to ask what do to about this whole States Rights thing. I gave him an earful, alright. Told him to check the Wikipedia on slavery (this was shortly after I had invented the Internet).
Typical liberal liar. And he makes millions! He should go into politics...no wait...it's the aids who become pundits (though I don't know if this was the case with this liar).
Tom Brokaw wants Brian Williams fired You know you’re in trouble when Tom Brokaw is out for your blood. NBC’s most revered journalist is furious that Brian Williams is still in the anchor chair after he sheepishly admitted he hadn’t traveled on a helicopter hit by enemy fire. “Brokaw wants Williams’ head on a platter,” an NBC source said. “He is making a lot of noise at NBC that a lesser journalist or producer would have been immediately fired or suspended for a false report.” On Wednesday, Williams, 55, acknowledged that he had repeatedly said he was aboard a chopper that had been hit by a rocket-propelled grenade during a 2003 reporting trip to Iraq, when he was actually safely traveling in a different aircraft. Brokaw, 74, was still the “Nightly News” anchor when Williams came back from his Iraq expedition — and an insider said he knew the story Williams later spouted was bunk. “Tom Brokaw and [former NBC News President] Steve Capus knew this was a false story for a long time and have been extremely uncomfortable with it,” the source said. NBC News execs had counseled him to stop telling the tale. Williams still took the anchor’s seat for his “Nightly News” broadcast Thursday evening — and was working at 30 Rock all day despite calls for his dismissal. He didn’t address the issue during the broadcast. “He is not going to be suspended or reprimanded in any way. He has the full support of NBC News,” a network source said. Many of Williams’ colleagues believe his claim that he simply “conflated” two versions of what happened in 2003. “There have been meetings about it all day. They are taking it very seriously,” the NBC source said. “But we believe that Brian’s apology on the air speaks for himself. He admitted over time he conflated the events.” NBC brass hasn’t been talking to lower-level employees about the situation, leaving people in a panic, the insider said. “NBC bosses don’t understand how serious this is. Nobody in a leadership position is talking to the troops. Nobody has addressed it,” the source said. One longtime NBC employee who has worked with Williams on several occasions had a few dirty words to describe the celebrated anchor, calling him a “real pompous piece of s–t.” “He’s an a–hole,” he fumed. “He’s not a journalist. He’s a reader. “Oh, the fireworks that are going off inside,” he said. “It’s embarrassing. He’s the face on NBC. He’s a liar. “Everyone knew it.”
"So Brian.... tell us again how you single-handedly beat the Saddam, and how you personally killed Bin-Laden."
