What's with the class warfare?Shit, he's not even important at all.Brian Williams, Anchor and Managing Editor, "NBC Nightly News":
Brian Williams is seen by more U.S. television viewers on a daily basis than any other individual. Since taking over as anchor and managing editor of NBC Nightly News in 2004, he has strengthened the broadcast's position as the most-watched newscast in all of television and has become the most highly decorated evening news anchor of the modern era. He has received eleven Edward R. Murrow Awards, twelve Emmy Awards, the duPont-Columbia University Award, the Walter Cronkite Award for Excellence in Journalism and the industry’s highest honor, the George Foster Peabody Award....
Brian Williams - NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams - About Us NBC News
This sure looks like they think he's a News Guy, not a Commentator or Entertainer.
Nah. He's a Face. Whether he's a commentator or entertainer, like Hannity et al mentioned above, would depend on the content. But if he was just a "news guy" they wouldn't need a Face. They'd just plunk down whatever (real) news guy was available. There's a reason they package it as "NBC News With Brian Williams" (or whoever, plug in name). They're selling Illusion. If they were selling straight news they could put text up.
A nobody.
Whole thing don't mean shit.
A nobody who is paid $10M per year to be MANAGING EDITOR and Anchor of NBC's flagship Nightly News.
"Managing editor" was covered earlier. Empty suit. I agree with Grape Juice -- "reporter" is honorific. He's hired to be a Face.
That said though, it's still moot since neither of these anecdotes were part of the news. They're personal anecdotes.
Thanks for the additional proof that your ideology is bankrupt.
Am I wrong about it? I have yet to see any story that says it came from the newscast.
He reported on the original incident in 2003. It's noteworthy that he later changed his story and NBC did nothing about it.
I don't know anything about that one; I'm here for Katrina. But I watched it and actually he says the other chopper took a hit -- not his.
Not sure what I'm supposed to be looking for here, because this doesn't fit.
Yes, on the news he said it was the other chopper - but then in 2007 he revised his "narrative" and started claiming his was shot.
There is no requirement for him to be credible when introducing news reports from reporters. He didn't report it, he didn't write it, it's not his credibility.For him to be considered credible on his news program
He's a traffic cop.
Dan Rather is the only true reporter I can think of to transition to anchor, in the modern era. Peter Jennings was an anchor, then realized he had no gravitas at 26 years old, and requested a transfer to Europe to actually become a reporter. I don't remember Tom Brokaw being a reporter in the field prior to getting the 'Today' show gig.
No Williams is.Another leftist gets caught in a lie.... I mean.... mistake.
Brian only though he was on a helicopter that got shot down. Yea, and honest mistake. I thought I was on a plane once that crashed... Turned out not to be so.. Stuff happens. LMAO
I hope this ends that assholes career

NBC's Brian Williams Admits He Was Never On Helicopter Forced Down In Iraq
NEW YORK -- "NBC Nightly News" anchor Brian Williams said Wednesday that he had not been aboard a helicopter that was struck and forced down in Iraq in 2003, as he has previously claimed.
Williams recanted his original story to Star and Stripes, telling the military paper that he doesn't know "what screwed up in my mind that caused me to conflate one aircraft with another.”

These Fox journos are such liars.
The only way liberals rule is by lying. If Obama was truthful about Obamacare, Sarah Palin would have been our Vice President.Between Brian Williams and the global warming hoax liberal lies might be the beginning of their undoing.
This is on top of the Dan Rather lies and the NBC lies about George Zimmerman.

Bush lied and hundreds of thousands died....Brain Williams is being punished for Iraq?
You're out of your mind
Look- The lefties like to cry about guns and war, yet they reap in the $$$$ with their films depicting just that. And now, we have a lefty reporter who felt the void left by being a coward....
So he lied about it. BW felt he needed to lie to cover up his personal failure and remorse in never serving his country.

Hundreds of thousands? Really? How about the Democrats in Congress who voted for the war and are on Obama's cabinet?

And because military men have lost their lives in helicopter accidents or shoot downs, Williams's war story is nothing more than Stolen Valor. That's his crime.Williams didn't claim to serve in the military, either.Did O'Lielly indeed lie about combat duty? Pretty simple question - will you punt?
^ stolen directly from the DailyKos.
'Nuff said.
We know he lied about growing up in Levittown. What else has he lied about?
O'Reilly never said he served in the military. He said he was exposed to combat fire when in South America. The latter may have been a lie, but it isn't one about serving in the military.
That's correct. He just lied about his helicopter being shot.
Its a bad thing he did however it has no significance except to him...sure I agree it is stolen valor ...similar to Reagan claiming he liberated Death camps in Europe...similar to the "stolen compassion" of Paul Ryan...the difference is Brian Williams was trying to be NBC news anchor and the other two wanted to lead our nation...And because military men have lost their lives in helicopter accidents or shoot downs, Williams's war story is nothing more than Stolen Valor.
