I made a topic about Brian Williams who, as we all know, was the head anchor and once leader of the news department of NBC broadcast news. One of the big 3 broadcast TV networks. He is much more than a nobody on a cable news outfit like your Bill O'Rielley.
Since you think Mr. O'Rielley has done something noteworthy, then start a topic.
Brian Williams had a similar case to Bill, the difference is Brian was on a bigger scale. He lied, was found out and now replaced by Lester Holt who did a great job filling in for Brian even before the debacle. Brian was moved over to MSNBC which in a way is an upgrade but is also a downgrade due to how important the channel is to most viewers (very small.)
The difference is that Brian admitted lying and lost his job, unlike Bill.
After being caught by others. Furthermore...... he didn't lose his job. NBC is still paying him a fantastically large salary and he is still employed.
I find it fascinating that you take every attempt to defend this even when you can only do it with fallacious comparisons to a TV commentator on another network. The funny thing about that, you apparently hold this commentator as well as his network in complete contempt, yet you think Williams is OK for doing exactly the same thing.
Of course people often trip over their own shoe laces when they attempt to tie the knots so tight.
NBC/Comcast puts self admitted liar Brian Williams back ON AIR on its MSBNC by product. Ironically, his first assignment is to cover the Pope coming to America. He had previously lied on NBC about having met the Pope.
Interestingly NBC was forced to limit its coverage of the recent 10 year anniversary of Katrina, which normaly it would devote hours to, in an attempt to avoid that lies that Williams told about it. Such lies as him personally seeing bodies floating down the street.
I dumped NBC/MSNBC as a legitimate news source long before this scandle arose. It's pretty clear that they are completely agenda motivated and lie when it suits them.
