Rather defended Williams. Not the Onion. What's next, Jayson Blair replacing Williams?

Not surprising. He's always been a joke.

It always seemed like he wanted to be in comedy instead of the news anyway.

He'd be more credible if he were the news anchor on SNL.

The timeline of how his version of the story changed over the years is not atypical.  Human memory is not infallible and we all tend to place ourselves more centrally in the story than we originally were.

Maybe this shows he shouldn't be in the position he's in, but he's not a "POS" because he exaggerated what must have been a very scary experience.

TF, Brian Williams reports on the news that shapes the political debate, and is the most watched newscaster (if you believe the commercials). What he says about Katrina or Iraq is a hell of a lot more relevant to US Politics than the latest gaffe by a county commissioner and most of the other stuff that gets posted on the US General Discussion board.  Please put this thread back where it belongs.

Isn't that like saying he's the nicest liar on the block?

Even if I agreed with you, I can't since I don't moderate this board.

Seems to me, for all the people who told us lies about Iraq, Brian Williams is the last person we should sh**t on. For one he's actually apologized, and two, nobody died because of his lie.

that's a no-brainer.  they've asked Brian about Allison's sex scenes a few times.. he always replies with this milquetoast "she's an adult and an actress and we understand that".  as if that's actually the totality of his emotions when watching the sh**t.

Allison Williams should also have to resign from Girls as she is only a successful actress because of her father who is only anchor because of his Iraq coverage which was only infamous because of his lie.
