NBC News' Brian Williams admits he wasn't on aircraft in Iraq

Apparently there are concerns about his report during katrina being fake as well.

Makes you wonder what else he, and other media clowns made up.

He took himself temporarily off the air today...sad day for hack journalism...he will be missed.

I wonder when some of the talking heads on Fox News will resign?

This is a bombshell.

How can anybody ever trust the big time big name NBC and MSNBC now !!!

This makes the small time cable news look puny.

Now who's next?

CBS I predict.

Conan O'Brien Fully Exposes Mainstream Media

This exposed circus just keeps getting better.
CNN's Fake Story Defending Brian Williams DEBUNKED Too!


How anyone can watch MSM is beyond me.

I guess people get used to being lied to as 'normal'. Don't want to break the illusion now do we.

CNN still talking about what will happen.

Either fire the man for creating fake news or keep him and let people know NBC doesn't have a problem with fake news and lies being passed off as facts.

No one should be really surprised at what happened.

This is almost as bad as lying about being in the military when you weren't.

I don't know how he's going to come back from this one. And he probably shouldn't.

I bet Bill O'Riley and Sean Hannity have stretched the truth and outright lied before.

I wonder what the fall out would be if that was exposed? Would we be calling for their resignations as well?

Yes.

ETA; But then we'd have to do a deeper dive to figure out what a real journalist and real journalism is.

This whole thing to me seems like someone screaming and pointing at someone's junky back yard, all the while ignoring their own.

CNN is reporting Brian has been suspended without pay for 6 months. No one in the report seemed to understand that move.

It means NBC has no back up and they are living in fantasyland by thinking this will blow over without any serious blow to Williams' credibility....or their own.

Next up, heads will roll at NBC over this hedge. Their very credibility is at risk, something no news organization can afford.

It's crazy.

Yes, I think the blow over thought might be there. Given the general public, it doesn't matter. Most people are not calling out the bogus news sources now anyway.
