BREAKING: Brian Williams’s Replacement Lester Holt Falsely Claims He Flew 9 Gs, “Had Bombs Fall Around Him” in NBC Post… Gotnews.com has confirmed that embattled NBC anchor Brian Williams’s replacement, Lester Holt, has also exaggerated his past exploits.
In an October 2006 blog post for NBC News Holt described conquering his fear of snakes and how he wasn’t afraid of doing dangerous things.
“I am not a whimp [sic]. I have done stories dangling 90 floors above Chicago in a window-washing rig on the Sears Tower. I have pulled 9-Gs and done loops and rolls with the Thunderbirds and Blue Angles. Heck, I had bombs falling around me in Lebanon a few months ago,” Holt wrote.

lol, don’t tease with another incompetent lying news reader. Is this a joke? Because it’s too sweet to not be true. Wonder how many of these clowns they still have in the wings?
NBC does have stockholders and sponsors. At some point NBC needs a massive proctology exam to remove ALL the polyps... Or NBC will fade to history
The question to ask is ‘How many have actually and deliberately in defense of US troops placed their own lives in jeopardy’. If they are not real military anything they say has to be taken with a grain of salt. I forgot farmers and some hunters use salt licks to feed and entice animals.
here is the link to holt’s today show blog, with the claims:
Dumbassery abounds.
Nothing But Charlatans.
I would cut him some slack on the “9 G’s”. He may have actually thought he did.
If the bombs falling around is a lie tho, that is not something you would get wrong by accident.
Ted Baxter was real!
I guess what we need is those European news readers or something like Ananova.
Actually, unless someone has served in the military, how could they ever understand it? These talking heads act as if they are experts without having much understanding in the field they are covering. Many of them are not working for the best interests of the country, but their own selfish careers. They worship the liberal Democratic Party because they think it is cool.
A lot of bad things have been said about Dan Rather but the guy was the real deal when it came to walking the walk.
Cold Lake Canookistan ....... love that place. Worked with their EOD unit up there and again in the middle east a few times..... canadians are great !
Got to get me some of those glasses...
Dick Lane? Thought he was a wrestling/boxing announcer. Remember a joke from decades ago that the famous lovers lane in S Cal, Mulhaland Dr was being renamed to Dick Lane.

Lester, methinks you actually are a wimp. Really, the lies aside, I can’t believe a grown man felt the need to talk about himself this way. Unless someone called him a wimp, why would he write such things about himself?
But maybe a “whimp” is something else altogether that I just don’t know about.
The news is what they say it is, right?
'Course he was unconscious at the time...
