While discussing a photo reporters in Tampa, Florida had taken of the intense winds, Williams instructed Florida viewers to not take similar photos of their own. Instead, he suggested they steal this photo, share it, and “pretend you shot it.”
“We’ll look the other way,” he helpfully added.

What a condescending worthless little prick.
Your photos aren’t good enough. F*$& off.
Is what he should have said instead.
Then he’ll claim them as his own - like didn’t you know he rode out the hurricane in the eye of the storm? Neither did I.
A little “How To” from one of the barons of Fake News at the Ministry of Propaganda.
The man has a problem.
Brian has lost his mind.
Things just keep getting more and more weird.
That’s a step in the right direction. Instead of monopolizing #FakeNews, he’s teaching his viewers how it’s done. We all get to make our own #FakeNews. That’ll be fun!
I remember when I was circling into the Tuzla airport, landing under sniper fire, and running with my head down because there was no time for anything but a ceremony where a cute little girl presented me with flowers . . .
Oh, not me, sorry. How about this:
I remember when I found the George W. Bush memo shat showed he was given special treatment in the national guard. Well, it wasn’t an original, but I typed it up myself a couple of decades later on my word processor. It may have been fake, but it was accurate and that’s close enough to being real. Isn’t it?
Not me either?
Don’t worry. I have more. Lots more.
Telling the truth was never his strong suit.
The past few decades, the last ten years especially feel like somewhere along the line “something” happened and a bunch of people just decided to throw all decency, common sense, and intelligence out the window. Not just the “little people” either.
What that “something” is well, who knows?
Don’t you automatically own the copyright to your photo the moment you take the picture?
And the press freely steals your photos from Facebook and twitter and uses them in print and web without paying.
Oh they know that it’s wrong but they know 9 out of 10 tims they’ll get away with it without any pursuit. And those who do will have to be prepared to go to court.
Billion dollar big journalism. Their entertainment branches aren’t so free about you sharing their content online.
Yes but the infractions are many. The biggest hoot is when Getty steals someone’s photos and then pursues charges when that photographer uses his or her own photos.
It’s almost like someone’s put something in the water; or a lot of people are on very interesting ‘psychoactives’...
I’m glad I don’t watch much television.
Did he have it to begin with?
That’s right, Brian Williams is all about pretending.
“You can be fake news reporters too boys & girls”
He’s still employed as a journalist?
