He was probably confusing that incident with the time he landed under sniper fire with Hillary in Bosnia.

This could well mean an increase in ratings for NBC Nightly News.

Fox News viewers may consider jumping ship.
After all, they lap up lies on a daily basis.

I don't appreciate Brian's "confusion" with what happened anymore than anybody else here. But I will point out that Brian was about 4,000 miles closer to enemy fire than GWB ever got.

Kind of like John Kerry and the whole Swift Boat garbage. All I know is Kerry was in the line of fire and GWB was in Louisiana. Or Texas. :rolleyes:

Stinks, you forgot to add ...

John Kerry appeared before Congress and lied about our soldiers raping women, pillaging and killing children. A small reminder of his unforgivable perjury: ... Jenn-jiss Kaan ...

Stinks, you forgot to add ...

G.W. Bush, that guy the lunatic fringe on the left loves to call stupid, graduated from both Yale and Harvard. Your dopey hero, John Kerry, wasn't even smart enough to get into either school. Simply put he was too stupid to be admitted. And, even though Kerry was the son of a well-connected multi-millionaire, Harvard and Yale said no way, we do have some standards.

(In all fairness, Kerry was indeed smart enough to earn a very generous D average at Boston College. Now, Boston College is a fine school, a very fine school. Even my idiot high school friend from The Bronx was accepted to BC -- after he was rejected by St. John's and Iona, of course.) :lol:

Stinks, you forgot to add ...

The Swift Boat patriots were first hand witnesses to John Kerry's cowardness and dereliction of duties. It's the lunatic dweebs in the media (and here on PA) that ignore that fact when defending their guy, their clown, their phony, their tax evader, their sissy wind surfer, their cad who preys on fat rich widows, John Forbes Kerry.

funny summary of how Williams has told this tale over the years, and as time goes on he gets closer and closer to the action.
He even told Alec Baldwin in an interview that he briefly thought that he would die.

I take such delight in this because Williams is such a pompous arrogant ass, and as managing editor of NBC news he's in charge of getting the facts right over there.

“I guess I do say to myself and to others — ‘I’ve got this’ — and I don’t know where that unbridled confidence comes from,” Williams began, trying to describe where he gets his thirst for action and challenge.

“And I’ve done some ridiculously stupid things under that banner like being in a helicopter I had no business being in in Iraq with rounds coming into the airframe,” Williams said.

“Did you think you would die?” Baldwin asked.

“Briefly, sure,” Williams said. “There have been probably more than …” he began before trailing off.

So true. But at least he parsed his apology with an elegant word...he somehow 'conflated' the two incidents...

Brian Williams lying is still trending number 2 on Twitter going into a second day.......ouch!

I don't think he's a cinch to survive this. The backlash from this type of lie could build and prove lethal.

[reckless]

Many times over the years I have 'modestly' boasted about being smack-dab in the middle in that historic Battle of Gettysburg. And, I was there. And I told the story many times over the years. What? You don't believe me?

Well, dammit, I was there only ... it was a while after the actual conflict. But I was there to honor all those brave men who fought for all of us on that horrific day for which I am greatful.

Did you guys also know I was in the same plane with Hillary when they shot at us in Afghanistan?

Or when I was with Chelsea Clinton jogging toward the WTC when the first plane hit on 9-11?

I was also at Gitmo when the US soldier flushed a Koran down the toilet.

Please, please, pah-leese ... stop it! And to think these lying idiots are still looked up to en masse by left wing dweebs and lunatics.

That is the oldest Communist trick in the book. lol.

Pretty sad when SNL's Weekend Update has more credibility than the Evening News.

At this point everything that he has ever said must be questioned. Tom Brokaw wants him fired. Kind of ironic when someone that pompous is caught lying.

[reckless]

He probably won't get fired because NBC and his 'news hour' is No. 1 in the network TV ratings war. If it was 3 or 4, he'd be outta there for sure.

What's your favorite BW lie Stinks? I lean toward the rescue of the two puppies from the house fire. I suspect you prefer the lie about the floating body in the French Qtr after Katrina, or maybe the lie about witnessing a suicide in the Superdome? They're all good, I must admit.

[Tom]

If they allowed him on the air today, they prove that they are not a real news outlet.

NO reliable news would allow a preoven liar on.

But this is so funny considering how all the libs keep alleging FOX lies and can never prove it, and here is lie after lie coming out of the top dog anchor.

Murdoch's NY Post today: The first 5 of 7 pages of the newspaper, including the whole front page, was all devoted to this story. Why? Could it be because Murdoch owns FOX News and if Williams' top-rated news show loses viewers, it may benefit Murdoch's TV stations?

Just another reason why nobody should be able to own TV stations and newspapers in the same city. But let's not talk about the Aussie purchasing public influence by dominating the media market in NYC, let's beat to death this sad if nothing else story about a news reader who has a tendency to BS in real life.

That says something about Murdoch. It says nothing about Williams. Or his credibility. Williams is or isn't a phony, regardless of competitive coverage of him.

[ArlJim78]

He sure can spin a tale, this story changed so many times over the years.
Also it appears he completely made up several aspects of his Katrina coverage.

Let's all remember NBC's funniest attempt to sensationalize a story.

Because when the White House publicity department (NBC) is found to have an habitual liar in the top news spot, who reports phony news, it is a big deal.

I understand you lefties, who live lives of lies, don't think so, but to some people, truth matters. You will never understand it, just eat your pablum and be quiet. I'm sure you get your opinion emailed to you soon. :bang:

The second of the Big Three national networks proven to have liars in the anchor chairs, cBS now NBC, and the story YOU see is FOX reports it.

Really, lame, Stinky.....really lame.

[JustRalph]

Brian Williams is the managing editor or some title like that, at NBC news. That makes him the top dog and figurehead for the network news division. The fact that he still has a job is disgraceful.

[Tom]

Why is Stinks (and most Dems) defending BW? Easy.

Remember this? Hillary told a very similar lie a few years back. To criticize BW is to criticize Hillary.

For Stinks, a few things about the NY Post. I've read the paper since 1985, long, long before it was owned by RM. Its reporting and editorial positions haven't drifted an inch from 29 years ago, but keep shooting the messenger.

How about the New Orleans Advocate, owned by John Georges (ran as independent for gov 7 or 8 yrs ago and now states he's a Dem, a wealthy one)? Two days ago, they ran the story about BW's fake Katrina reporting. Is Fox behind that story?

Again, what's your favorite BW lie?

You know mine. "I instinctively tucked it in my coat. When I got outside, I saw two small eyes staring up at me, and I returned the 3-week-old and very scared puppy to its grateful owners," said Williams recounting his heroic actions to save a puppy from a house fire when he served as a volunteer firefighter.

I also enjoy the version where he saved two puppies.

"All I ever did as a volunteer fireman was once save two puppies. But I have an understanding--a link to those guys. Going to sleep with my boots, pants, jacket, and helmet next to the bed for so many years is still, to this day, the best training for the life I lead."

Even more convinced now..Brian Williams will lose his job over this and whatever else they dig up. First off, the whole 'stolen valor' thing is very toxic..something folks just WON'T tolerate these days. Secondly, the 'floating body' remark while covering Katrina tightens the noose even more. And finally, even as I type this, somebody is pouring over every word the guy ever uttered on camera, and nobody can survive that kind of scrutiny.

In addition, the network is clearly distancing itself from him. And once Americans smell blood, they are satisfied with nothing less than the offending party getting fired. I'm usually disgusted at how country LOVES to call for the other guy's job, but in this case it's probably justified. The mob always wins, and this time the mob is right.

I hope you understand that Brian Williams is and never has been somebody I put up on pedestal for some inexplicable reason. The guy reads the news for crying out loud. He wasn't playing baseball on steroids; he didn't lie about weapons of mass destruction; he didn't just cost me my Super Bowl bet. In fact, the one thing I know I like about Brian is that he is a funny guy on talk shows.

My points were made here because I don't particularly like the way some people and businesses are joyfully trying to execute Williams for little more than exaggerating.

Exaggerating is embellishing a little. There are several occurrences by Williams that may have been fabricated out of whole cloth. Would you call these fabrications embellishments, or are they lies. If your grandson says that he scored a 100% on a test when he really didn't, is that exaggerating or lying?

Give me some fear and loathing over outright servitude to the Democratic Party anytime. MSNBC is complicit in maintaining a permanent underclass and keeping minorities tied into nothing short of a sub-cultural morass.

Btw, try to separate the news and the opinion on Fox. They are two different things.

[Clocker]

Every complaint about bias on Fox I have ever seen posted here was about an opinion show, not about a news show. The opinion shows on Fox are openly and admittedly conservative. Anyone that can't tell the difference between news and opinion is a poster child for low information voters.

And if you want to see fear and loathing, tune in to Chris Matthews on MSNBC. He is the reigning champ. Or I should say ranting champ.

He's the Chief editor of a cabal of propagandist that have a huge influence over many. NBC has long been an unofficial mouthpiece for the left. There are no journalist left in mainstream news and media.

[Saratoga_Mike]

H4C - this matter has nothing to do with Fox News. You believe GWB and Cheney lied left and right pre-Iraq. That assertion has been made by many; perhaps it's true. It doesn't have anything to do with BW. Nothing. Why not admit that you're defending BW b/c his politics lean left? How about some honesty for a change?

I previously voted for BW's rescue of "a puppy" or "puppies" from a fire as my favorite lie. I now see the NY Post reporting that he previously said in an interview that he was robbed at gunpoint, 0.38 caliber, as a teen while selling Christmas trees. I like that one, too. Maybe it's true. Seriously, maybe it is. Before the Iraq disclosure, I wouldn't have questioned the story for even a second. And therein lies the problem. You can't be a lead anchor with no credibility.

You'll assert - it's the NY Post - Murdoch wrote the article. See, that's where you and Stinks go wrong. The Post is merely using quotes from other news organizations. Is the New Orleans Advocate, run a by a wealthy Dem, out to get BW? Was Esquire magazine out to get BW?

Don't you see a pattern of exaggerations and lies? Just assume BW is Chris Wallace. It will allow you to realize this is a serious matter.

[Saratoga_Mike]

You, sir, are also a victim of propaganda, but you're too flummoxed to see it.

First, let me admit I personally don't like BW. It isn't his politics. I like Tom Brokaw, and I don't agree with his politics.

Second, where's the propaganda? Did you read the New Orleans Advocate story? Do you know who owns that paper? Did you read the Esquire interview? Was BW forced to lie about Iraq?

You're either one of three things: 1) poorly informed, 2) reflexively defensive of someone who you believe shares your own political views, or 3) very naïve. From the context of your posts, I'm voting for a little of 1 and 2.

[FantasticDan]

Second, where's the propaganda?Pretty sure A. Pineda was speaking generally here, since this was a specific response to Ralph's, "He's the Chief editor of a cabal of propagandist that have a huge influence over many." line.

Of course Ralph's comment doesn't make any sense either. I've never even known Williams to give political opinions. He reports the news, and makes talk show appearances where he tries to be funny. Eh.

Oh, and he has a lovely daughter who plays Peter Pan and simulates graphic sex on HBO. :cool: :ThmbUp:

Please listen to BW's interview about Katrina conducted by the college student. He's absolutely left of center, just as Chris Wallace is right of center.

Williams is just another in a long line of vainglorious dolts (thank you 1970s Marvel comics) who are ridiculously successful (by most people's definition), yet still feel the need to "enhance" themselves with lies and exaggeration.

Tom, JustRalph and others:

The faux outrage is amusing. You guys are acting like children that just had their lunch money stolen. You're upset that a journalist, whom you never watch, that works for a station that you never watch, told lies that you never heard until just recently.

No need for your heads to explode as Williams surely will lose his job. He may pop up again somewhere else, though. Even Imus survived.

Another lemming heard from.
That same thing never happens with the left moonbats here about FOX.....go back and bury your head in the sand. You have nothing to offer here.

H4C - this matter has nothing to do with Fox News. You believe GWB and Cheney lied left and right pre-Iraq. That assertion has been made by many; perhaps it's true. It doesn't have anything to do with BW. Nothing. Why not admit that you're defending BW b/c his politics lean left? How about some honesty for a change?

I previously voted for BW's rescue of "a puppy" or "puppies" from a fire as my favorite lie. I now see the NY Post reporting that he previously said in an interview that he was robbed at gunpoint, 0.38 caliber, as a teen while selling Christmas trees. I like that one, too. Maybe it's true. Seriously, maybe it is. Before the Iraq disclosure, I wouldn't have questioned the story for even a second. And therein lies the problem. You can't be a lead anchor with no credibility.

You'll assert - it's the NY Post - Murdoch wrote the article. See, that's where you and Stinks go wrong. The Post is merely using quotes from other news organizations. Is the New Orleans Advocate, run a by a wealthy Dem, out to get BW? Was Esquire magazine out to get BW?

Don't you see a pattern of exaggerations and lies? Just assume BW is Chris Wallace. It will allow you to realize this is a serious matter.

It's a very serious matter - he deserves to be fired.

I think that he has a highly capable replacement in Lester Holt.
So capable, in fact, that I believe their ratings will rise within months.

Fox News is an easy target for liberals.
It broadcasts many things we detest hearing.
So be it - we can all handle freedom of speech.
Won't stop me complaining about them, though.

I think Stewart could do the job. He's a smart guy. Obviously can handle a staff etc. but NBC would never go that way. He's a branded comedienne. But if you have seen his comments over the last few years, I think he wants to make movies. He's hit his magic number. Has enough money in the bank. Time to go a different route. I think he likes wearing the comedy moniker too.

Adam Sandler got insanely rich making shit movies. I predict that's what Stewart wants to do.

Oh, ya, Tampa Bay Times, the ultimate source of the truth -- NOT.

I call that article Mostly False and certainly misleading.

They cherry pick statements made by "personalities and their pundit guests". So everything they look at comes from opinion shows, not from the network news. Fox has a lot of liberal guests on those shows. I didn't look past the first 2 pages, because that was evidence enough, but the only liberal there was Bob Beckel, and his statement was called False. I have seen many liberals on Fox make stunningly wrong statements. They weren't lying, because they believed what they said. That article implies that the people that they say are wrong are lying. I didn't see them looking at anything Obama said in his Fox interviews.

And many of their calls were questionable at best. They said it was mostly false that the pipeline would create thousands of jobs because those jobs would be temporary. Jobs are jobs, and a couple of years of construction work is a lot better than any thing Obama has produced. They also label any questioning of "settled science" as False.

The article is worthless.

Hume is a political analyst. He is an opinion guy. They show a couple of times he got his facts wrong. They were not egregious errors, and there is no evidence that he was lying. He was doing political commentary at the time, he was not reporting the news.

Wallace is a news guy. He said Reid did not allow a vote on Keystone. The article says Reid allowed a few votes. If you look at that linked "proof", you will see that Reid allowed a couple of votes on amendments and offered to allow a vote if the GOP allowed another bill to pass. But as the paper admits, Reid never allowed a straight up and down vote. They are splitting hairs, and Wallace was right on the essence of his statement.

This stuff is great Stinks.

Brit Hume: "It is senior citizens, not Hispanics, who are the fastest-growing demographic in this country."

From 2000 to 2010, the Hispanic population (18+) grew by about 8 mm and the 65+ crowd by roughly 6 mm. In addition, the percentage growth was higher for Hispanics, according to the politifact chart.

How in the world is this on par with BW lying about personal experiences? You don't forget personal experiences like being shot at or bodies floating by you in a hotel. You do forget demographic information unless you have a perfect memory. BW lied to aggrandize himself. Did Brit Hume gain anything by making the above statement? No, I suspect it truly was a case of "misremembering."

Look up voter participation among the 65+ crowd vs. Hispanics. If you adjust for that factor, his statement has some validity as far as what group is more important in driving elections (short term), which was his underlying point.*

*I have not done this. I am speculating. I could easily be wrong.

Bill O'Reilly and many of the others mentioned in the article are commentators, not reporters. That said, Bill O'Reilly is a joke.

Yea, you're right. The Democratic party never should passed a bill that prohibits insurance companies from dropping somebody because they got sick. Or not insuring somebody because that person has a pre-existing condition. And what the hell were Dems thinking when they passed a bill that prohibits lifetime limits on medical expenses set by insurance companies? Not too mention allowing kids to stay on their parents'medical plan until age 26.

Yep. Those stinking Dems did all that. And then there are the people who never could afford health insurance but now have coverage because of Obamacare. That's the Dems fault too.

If enough Americans are pissed are about what the Dems did above, the GOP should win easy in 2016. After all, the vast majority of us are/were not depending on Obamacare for a damn thing. IMO, that should make it easier for the GOP to win in 2016 - not harder as you claimed in your post above.

All of those things are welfare issues, not insurance. Those things were available before ObamaCare, but were either individual responsibility matters or were actually covered by government programs. Preexisting conditions were covered and subsidized by state high risk pools. Why is insurance for a 26 year old "kid" a concern for society? You want your kid to have insurance, pay for it.

All of this is a bleeding heart liberal scam. It is welfare paid for through artificially high insurance premiums. If society deems those things necessary, do it honestly. Call it what it is, welfare, and fund it through general tax revenues.
