I remember how Freepers were saying that he was lying during the Katrina coverage.

[LibWhacker]

Probably not the first to make this observation, but Brian Williams is just a thief who specializes in stolen valor, the most contemptible kind of thief, imo. Imagine being caught doing that. I don’t know how you could stand to look at yourself in the mirror every morning, much less put your mug on tv every day during primetime. What a creep.

If those grunts hadn’t raised the issue in Stars and Stripes and the conservative blogisphere hadn’t got hold of it, this whole scandal would never have happened. Who says that investigative journalism is dead?

He *thinks* it'll be for a few days. He and Dan Rather can hang out.

It sure looks like this was a story the MSM couldn’t quash because of the internet. A generation ago this would have been buried.

It’s taking him a lifetime of struggle to earn the trust that others foolishly place in him?

[SgtHooper]

More like Maxwell Smart and chaos. :-)

I bet he told that same story to his daughter. Now she knows he is a liar, and is totally untrustworthy.

[catnipman]

Brian is so used to lying on his news shows about everything going on in the world, it’s no wonder he’s lost touch with reality and can no longer tell the difference between what’s real and what’s fantasy.

[US_MilitaryRules]

Good. Hopefully another POS LIAR won’t start reading the news how they think it should be.

[shove_it]

Yup. FR played a big role in BJ Clintoon’s impeachment and ‘Fake But Accurate’ Rather’s downfall, among others. That’s why we gotta keep the lights on in this big room.

[Genoa]

Has the MSM replacement ever been better than the replacee?

[RedMDer]

Layin' low!

Holt is 55 and Couric is 58. Think NBC will go younger, maybe much younger.

[shove_it]

AHHA, more grounds for discrimination.

[US_MilitaryRules]

There is always hope!

Thanks for the info!
