WTF? It’s the person(s) who appointed him to that board who should be fired!

Why would a member of the media be on this board? I would think that, based on the name alone, it would disqualify anyone other than congressmen from being on the board. Such an incestuous relationship between government and media....

Yep. I’m sure mine wasn’t the only call they received ;^)

He has to cut all existing ties before he begins rehabilitating his reputation. After a short break, he will write a book (or have one written for him). Then will make the talk show circuit and finally back to NBC but not in front of the camera.

Personally I would have thought an on air (heartfelt) apology would have been enough. For so much piling on I have to think someone in power must really be pissed at him.

I agree. Why was Williams on this Board in the first place?

I never liked those leeches in congress attaching their name to the Medal of Honor anyway. Where do they get off?

By “resigns” they mean “found they changed the locks on the doors”.

“For so much piling on I have to think someone in power must really be pissed at him.”

The credibility of the press got Obama elected. He has called that credibility into question, not just for himself, but for the entire legacy media. It’s necessary for them all to point their finger and jeer. In so doing they exonerate themselves from any taint of lying and salvage their credibility so they can continue as agents of Progressivism.

Every time I start to feel a little sorry for this guy, I remind myself that he is a corrupt poser who represents everything that is wrong with America today.

A phony narcissistic lying member of the Propaganda machine known as journalism. He and his ilk are polluting our culture with their ideology under the guise of objective news and science.

They need to be condemned for this breach of trust and honesty, and they need to be held accountable and suffer consequences.

Brian Williams is simply a natural product of Leftism...Lots of Talk resulting in the decay and death of all that is good and true.

Wasn’t always this way. There was a time when CBS and the AP were the gold standards of news reporting.
