The internet is having a field day with Brian Williams' shoddy recollection of the past
Amanda Macias
The on-camera talent of America's highest-rated network evening news broadcast and "the 23rd-most-trusted person in the country" is now the face of viral internet memes.
For more than a decade, Brian Williams has anchored "NBC Nightly News" and was forced to take a temporary leave of absence over "the next several days" amid the growing scandal of false claims he made while reporting in Iraq.
Williams, who earns $13 million annually (making him America's 4th overall highest-paid news broadcaster), admitted to confusing parts of a story he shared on-air about riding in a helicopter shot down by a rocket-propelled grenade in 2003. On Wednesday, after multiple military members questioned his personal account, which he has repeated on numerous occasions, he apologized on-camera to his audience.
Since then, Williams' coverage of Hurricane Katrina and other notable accounts are under internal investigation.
Here are some shots taking place.....grins
Riding shotgun with OJ...
Damn those tablets were heavy
He's so special didn't even need a suit...
The opinion of the entire NBC News Division is that a blockade is best option here, Jack.
"It wasn't a dream. It was a place. And you were there, and you, and you ...."
'84 was magical. I needed a perfect 10 on the vault to secure the gold...and I did it.
"The sky is literally falling here in Pangea…"
If it were me, I'd start with something catchy like Four score and seven years ago ...
Plenty others but you get the idea of what a joke he has become....still makes my blood boil....but...
