Brian Williams... really THT? So you really thought?
I don't understand why there is all this hoop-dee over Brian Williams and the news stories being BS, etc.
You mean to tell me that when you watch the "News" you really believe that the story is being told as it happened a majority of the time? Really?
Get real -- it's all BS. Doesn't matter if it's Brian Williams, Barbara Walters, or whoever. If you don't think it's BS just look around you. Look at the politicians. "for the people by the people"... yeah... because y'all are really going to black tie dinner for $5k a plate in a limo all the time. Yeah -- you're the people. LOL.
Sorry... but the Brian Williams thing is just silly.

In his apology he was even deceptive. He said he was in the helicopter behind the one that got hit with the RPG. Yeah, an hour or more behind according to the servicemen that were involved. He made it seem as if he was in a chopper right behind the one that got hit.

Having had experience with national news before, I can tell you it's NOT about the truth but about the story and any innuendo that can be implied...

Just explain to me how in the hell do you not know if the helicopter you were riding in was hit by an RPG?????????
If it detonates, everyone knows, but most won't care for long. If it doesn't detonate (like the one in question), it leaves a couple of softball-sized holes that some on board a big assed chopper (like the one in question) might not even see. This douche kept up the charade long after he knew what really happened ...

Is it any different then many THT members calling 1-2s 4-6 ft waves
Come on. Stop picking on Brian. Meanies. I feel bad for the guys flying him around that were probably ordered to go along with his stories by some Ball washing generals aid.
I think the bigger story being ignored was Katrina when he flew over the french quarter and claimed bloated bodies floating down the streets when it was not the quarter that got flooded out that bad.
I have praise for Brian. At least he is not repeating word for word from a tele prompter. Hell !! He is making it up on the fly.
One of my sons was in Iraq and sent to Katrina right after he returned back stateside. I still think brian is nothing more or less then all the other newsies.
