LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — Two days after NBC announced the six-month suspension of Brian Williams, questions have emerged over at least one other statement made by Williams when he was in the Southland.

I can’t come down too hard on Williams for the confusion he is once again experiencing over historical events.

He has clearly confused to fall of the Brandenburger Gate in Berlin in 1999 with the time he remembered the c-beams glitter in the dark near the ‘Tannhäuser Gate’.

Easy enough to be confused about the two.

This confusion is the result of the angst that every Progressive feels from birth that their moments with the class struggle and making a difference will, in time, be lost like tears in the rain.

Williams is taking heat now but he knows that in the United States of Entertainment people have very short memories and don’t really care that much about things like truth and integrity. During his hiatus Williams will find a way to rehabilitate his image. Liberals need him and they will assist with his return to the industry, albeit probably not in the anchor role. They owe him for his “service”.

He said ‘I was at the Brandenburg Gate the night the wall came down.’

He actually did not arrive until the next day ...

... but he had good intentions — to be at the Gate — so that should give him a pass.

Ok, the dude’s definitely a fabricator, but I’m going to have to give him a pass on this one. Remembering whether he was at the Brandenburg gate the night it went down vs. the day after. It was after all more than 25 years ago. I can actually see him getting this mixed up in his head. I’m not being sarcastic here either. This is a minor faux paus IMO.

Tom Brokaw can’t find a bus long enough, he should have went to the rail station......now Brokaw is crowing “Ive been telling them for a long time” (meaning NBC)
Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy watching the dog pile...but Brokaw
I despise.

I am so sick of hearing about B. Williams and his lies. His reputation and professional life is in ruins, mission accomplished. The hypocrites in the media and on the net will find someone else to kick around soon enough. I wish they could give it a rest already.
