Long before he was caught lying about his chopper being forced down by enemy fire in Iraq, Brian Williams boasted how he bravely rescued a terrified puppy from a house fire.
Or maybe it was two puppies.
The truth-challenged NBC anchor told dueling versions of his supposed heroics as a teenage volunteer firefighter with the Old Village Fire Company in Middletown, NJ.
In October 2011, Williams waxed rhapsodic about how his dad took him to fires.
“I remember one such house fire . . . conducting a search on my hands and knees, when I felt something warm, squishy and furry on the floor of a closet,” Williams said.
“I instinctively tucked it in my coat. When I got outside, I saw two small eyes staring up at me, and I returned the 3-week-old and very scared puppy to its grateful owners,” he said.
But in July 2005, he told a different story, insisting he had saved not one but two pups from certain death.
“All I ever did as a volunteer fireman was once save two puppies,” he said, according to Esquire magazine.

More tales from a “creative journalist”...er, uh, news reader.
Ya, that’s the ticket!
You made me laff for five full minutes.
I think this all calls for a Congressional investigation. Seriously. NBC has got a license to broadcast. If they are lying to the people, the people have a right to cancel the license.
‘I tried, nay begged to inform the American people about Johnathan Gruber and Obamacare but my editors would have none of it.’
Brain Williams, book of lies.
He will fit right in with the Obama administration.
A government programmer of the populace lies? I’m shocked…shocked, I tell you. /sarc
Just how old was he? No volunteers under age 18 would do interior firefighting.
” “All I ever did as a volunteer fireman was once save two puppies,” he said, “
Ruh Roh !
” More tales from a “creative journalist”...er, uh, news reader.”
I like Rush’s new term for them - “narrative readers”. They don’t rise up to the level of news readers.
Leave him on the air . . . anytime Americans want to look at a filthy stinking liar, they can turn to NBC
What a piece of garbage!

The “Guy” seems to have mental problems; i.e. confusing the images in his mind with events in the world outside that mind.
What I don’t get is why this isn’t getting more play ...

Wow from Hillary “I dodge bullets” to this. What is up with Liberals having to sooo exaggerate their stories. O wait that is why they are liberals.
Oh man, I thought this puppy story was a joke someone made up. Brian Williams now officially beyond parody.
He saved two puppies, yeh that’s the ticket. On his way to pick up his noble peace prize. Right.
