I may be wrong but I think Brian Williams is toast at NBC
Reminds me of a story an accountant told me. He said a salesman had been sent to Texas for about six months and was pissed off about it. So while he was there he found another job. When he quit he handed in a huge expense report. There was one small item they went round and round about and the company finally said flatly they were not going to pay it. The salesman said “That’s fine. But you never did find those cowboy boots.”
Hey, fake progressive heroism is expensive.
He may be toast but the bigger story is NBC’s willingness to tolerate him and turn a blind eye to his behavior. As long as he was bringing in money he was safe, but when the bean counters (probably the same ones looking at his expense reports) noted that corporate revenue was threatened, he had to go. If not for that, he’s still in the chair. Its all about money; especially when they say its not.
