NBC's lying ways have had it catching up with itself in the guise of having the very icon of its news reporting reputation caught to be less than truthful. It's one thing to lie about the political affairs it covers, another when lying is self-aggrandizing on a personal level. NBC's statement that Williams' is "to take hiatus", to me, actually means quite the opposite, that he is actually gone permanently.

Is he leaving to spend time with Rosie O’Donnell’s soon-to-be ex-wife? LOL

He can take a job at sister network MSNBC where when he lies, no one will be watching.

He’ll be at a liars recovery clinic to overcome his addiction to lying. It’s a disease and he deserves our pity. He’ll be back soon, once he’s over this rough spot.

Or he could be Al Sharpton’s body man.

Liberals live in a world of fantasy and they wind up believing it.

I say he’s tarnished and that NBC won’t be having him back. Their problem of getting rid of him is complicated by his just recently signed 5 year $10 million contract.

I think he’ll be gone for good but NBC hasn’t fired him yet. Before all this started he had the highest ratings for weekday early evening broadcasts. I think nbc still hasn’t decided what to do with him yet. The week or so he’ll be gone will be to see what else crawls out of the woodwork and the network will decide after they think the majority of flak has been dispensed

Was that 10 mil per year for 5 years or 10 mil for the whole 5 years total?
To: lbryce
The contract probably has an indemnification based on morals, but it is NBC. They might have waived lying as grounds for termination.

I guess that gives him time to do what he does best. Make up stuff. Maybe he’ll do an autobiography.

The ‘blood in the water’ has turned into a gushing artery.
He would have been better off not apologizing, and just letting the noise eventually go away, which it would have.
Funny how Dan Rather didn’t get such treatment right away, and he did something that was OUTRIGHT diabolical, trying to INFLUENCE a PRESIDENTIAL RACE with total LIES! They even ‘invented’ a dammed reward for him! LOL (has anyone else won it since?)

Maybe he’ll get the Congressional Medal of Dishonor for his little act of stolen valor.
