The atmosphere surrounding Brian Williams has turned so toxic that its not clear whenor even ifhell be able to return to the anchor chair.
The original planWilliams apologizes, takes himself off the air for a few days, schmoozes with Letterman, and slides back into his jobhas crumbled. The apology was weak and inaccurate, too fleeting to heal the wound over telling a lie about his chopper in Iraq having been hit by a rocket-propelled grenade.
His statement that he had decided as managing editor to suspend himself made it look like nobody at NBC is in charge, that he is so big and famous that he answers to no one. And NBC isn't really conducting an internal "investigation" that would hold Williams accountable. So now hes in a kind of professional limbo, with no apparent Plan B.

Can someone put together a quick list of the savaging experienced by Conservatives/Republicans that clowns in the media like Williams hammered on.
Like Trent Lott simply wishing a happy birthday to Strom Thurmond and trying to say something nice.
I know there are a ton of them.
My point is there was absolutely NO UNDERSTANDING or PROPORTIONALITY when it came to those on the RIGHT.
Screw you Brian. Take your obvious talent for fiction and start writing novels.
If Willams is gone, it will help us. He looks like a Fortune 5oo CEO, but spouts hard core leftism, while acting like boy scout. F him!
Is Jonathan Gruber defending him yet?
Only a matter of time. NBC should just cut him and get this over with.
Maybe Allison can get her dad a gig on her show.
Joe does not want his own Katrina reporting investigated.
I think I saw his body floating by in the blogosphere.
He could always become a global warming activist.
eFF BW.
What say we replace “Iraq War” with “Climate Change” eh guys.
Before the concept of Manhood was destroyed in our Culture Williams would have been done the moment all of this came to light. Once, doing a Williams, was as un-Manly as a male could get.
So if someone were to start barbecuing Muslims by the tens of thousands, it would be okay to say, "Well the Nazis did far worse, and we should have opposed them sooner", and that will make the story go away?
The media is circling the wagons around Brian Williams because they too have problems with truth telling and they wish to preserve their rights to lie to the American people.
Brian Williams is really devastating to the media because he personalizes the issue of media lying and propaganda in a way that is understandable and relevant to most Americans in much the same way that Americans were able grasp Monica Lewinsky when they were not able to grasp the Clinton’s transfer of ballistic missile and nuclear weapons technology to the Chinese in return for campaign cash.
I believe that Geraldo Jerry Rivers supports the loser. That'll make a big difference.
Why don’t they just bury him alive?
Anything Sarah Palin says.

LOL! TED BAXTER has more to him than Brian Williams.
