if they don’t it means they approve/endorse what he’s done.

Bur Brian makes people feel good about themselves, and that makes NBC money.

Better to quit lying about what his job is and keep him on.

Brian can take Obama with him if the standards apply equally.

Since Brian Williams is not a "journalist" and he is merely a propagandist (agitprop designation), a tool for the demoncrat party, a mere reader of whatever he is given as talking points for the day, Williams will always have his "job".

His persona is essential to the "cause", donchaknow.

NBC should fire Brian Williams or admit that its programing is just a “Talk Show” and not in any form a “NEWS” program.

Oh, dear, Brian Williams has shown the MSM as willful liars who embellish their deeds and stories? The ultimate sin is to get caught. Brian sinned and was caught. Brian must be destroyed to preserve the credibility of the rest of the lying Media whores. Good luck, Brian, the Media’s long knives are out to get you.

I see no reason they should fire Williams. They commonly employ people of a much lower caliber (AKA Sharpton, etc.).

Why NBC must fire Brian Williams... but won’t. That’s the reality.

Liberal scum, supports liberal scum.

Williams was on tonight heralding that NBC
endorses his lies, endorses his lying coverup,
and like the “exploding cars”, endorses lie
after lie after lie after lie.

The NJ Radio station kept reporting this as a story about “Monmouth County native” Brian Williams, getting that local news angle in.

But I felt he’d really had it when I heard one of the Sirius music deejays talking about it, and it wasn’t even one of the star deejays, just the guy spinning platters on 60s on 6 or 70s on 7 or whatever one it was.

He said: it’s going to be a long time before anyone believes Brian Williams again...the apology only made things worse

And then it was on to the next oldie!

Once the credibility is gone,it’s gone.

For all practical purposes his career is over even if he’s still cashing the big paychecks.

NBC is the enemy, and keeping Williams only reduces their credibility and power. At this point he does NBC more harm than good.
During WW2, the allies stopped trying to take out Hitler in 1943 because he was actually hurting Germany’s war effort.

NBC is just a thinly disguised arm of MSNBC.

Rush said that officials at NBC news knew it was fabricated and had asked him to stop telling the story.

Now his Katrina reporting is coming under question.

I can’t believe anything the man says!
