NBC Nightly News anchor Brian Williams has been suspended for six months without pay following his false claims about an experience he had during the Iraq war, NBC News president Deborah Turness announced Tuesday night.
"We have decided today to suspend Brian Williams as Managing Editor and Anchor of NBC Nightly News for six months. The suspension will be without pay and is effective immediately," Turness wrote in a memo to staff. "We let Brian know of our decision earlier today. Lester Holt will continue to substitute Anchor the NBC Nightly News."

Make it short and sweet, fire him. They have, for all intents and purposes. Just now up to the lawyers to work through the details.

"He wont be back."Bingo.
They might as well have said-
"We'll be holding his head underwater in a bathtub for half a year. After that, his future will be in his own hands".

I think you’re right and hopefully so, it’s what he deserves.

At $10 million per year, he gets a six month vacation and only $5 million...........It must suck being him.

NBC continues it’s war on women...
The subtlety and finesse involved in network news lying really calls for the skills of a woman.
Not that exceptional guys aren’t capable too.

Just a case of NBC pretending that they believe in

And also a fake robbery back in the 1970’s while he was selling Christmas trees. I was going to post that article but USA Today is a no-go.
