The Media Research Center's Newsbusters reported on a Rasmussen poll showing that 40% of Americans believe Brian Williams should leave NBC. (Another 20% believe that he should be deported. )

Please call NBC CEO Steve Burke at (888) 317 2837 and tell him Brian Williams should step down immediately.


NBC will not regain ANY credibility until Brian Williams steps down.

Please call NBC CEO Steve Burke right now at (888) 317 2837 and tell them Brian Williams has to go.

Remember, be polite when you call, but firmly let him know that these lies cannot be condoned.

Brian "Can't Tell The Truth" Williams

Are you suggesting that the other talking heads are truthful?

SBW

His lies are not nearly as egregious and abhorrent as obama's lies. Not nearly as damaging. Where is the phone in campaign to get rid of the liar in chief? There was a time not long ago where the president was held to a strict higher standard. No more. If you come across that number please let me know. I am sure there are tens of millions of other Americans that would like it as well.

*****Back in the fall of 2006, long before Brian Williams confessed to “conflating” his helicopter adventures over Iraq, Neal Santangelo knew the NBC news anchor was a fraud.

Santangelo, a Boston firefighter, former president of Local 718 and a proud veteran of the Navy submarine service, served on a committee that brought the Congressional Medal of Honor Society to Boston that year for its national convention.

About six months before the society’s gala banquet at the Convention Center, Williams agreed to serve as master of ceremonies.

But when he arrived on Saturday, Sept. 30, 2006, Williams told committee members Tom Lyons and Neal Santangelo that a “pressing engagement” back in New York prevented him from doing much more than greeting the audience of more than 1,000 guests … and leaving.

As disappointed as Lyons and Santangelo were, they still arranged for a police escort to rush Williams through the tunnel to catch his plane back to NYC.

After the banquet, as Santangelo, Lyons and other committee members relaxed in a lounge at the Colonnade Hotel, Neal Santangelo’s wife phoned from their room to say she knew why Brian Williams had to bail out of a Medal of Honor banquet.

She was watching the chiseled face of “NBC Nightly News” ham it up with Seth Meyers and Amy Poehler in a Weekend Update sketch on “Saturday Night Live.”

“I … cannot believe that you left us for this,” Neal Santangelo wrote in a letter to Williams a week after the banquet. “In an act of egotistical, blatant self-promotion, you deceived the (Medal of Honor) Recipients, declined to break bread with them and disrespected them.

“You placed comedy before courage … Your conduct was irreverent, insulting, incomprehensible and shameful. You may attempt to ‘spin’ the issue to support your position, but that will do nothing but bring you further shame in my eyes.”

The three-page letter Neal Santangelo wrote out of pure rage and emotion was never sent.

“I didn’t want to send it off like some loose cannon,” Santangelo told me yesterday. “So, even though the local committee agreed with every word, we decided to run it past the national (Medal of Honor) society.

“And what came back to us was, ‘Yes, we agree with what you’re saying, but we don’t want to burn any bridges with this guy.’ ”

So, Neal Santangelo reluctantly demurred and stored the letter away in his computer.

Until yesterday.

Brian Williams still sits on several advisory boards of the Medal of Honor Foundation, an adjunct of the MOH society. They have declined any comment.

Neal Santangelo smelled something rotten eight years ago. Nothing about Brian Williams’ “conflation” surprised him. On the contrary, it made him gleeful that what he felt in his heart and his gut about a guy who would run toward the spotlight, rather than share the genuine light of heroes, was proved to be true.

“You need to apologize to America’s veterans,” Santangelo wrote to Williams back on Oct. 5, 2006, “and to the brave men and women of the United States Armed Forces defending freedom around the globe. Anything less is unacceptable.”

Well, it took eight years and the apology wasn’t all it should have been. But now the whole country knows what Neal Santangelo came to discover.

Brian Williams is just another TV showman. *****

TV news blowhards are a dime a dozen....Next!

So, what's wrong with the remaining 60% of Americans, that they believe that this confabulator (I've waited all my life to use that word) should have a public platform for his made up stories.

So Lyin' Brian chose to have his integrity removed?

Hacksaw Loc: Pacific Northwest

My prediction is that Brian Williams will not be back on the anchor desk. Anyone remember Dan Rather?

davefales Loc: Virginia

There is a real possibility that most of that 60% doesn't even know who Brian Williams is. We have become a woefully navel-gazing crowd.

Blurryeyed Loc: NC Mountains.

Brian Williams unfortunately withheld stories that should have been covered from the American people, I say good riddance. Unfortunately his replacement will not be any different as NBC gears up to run interference for Hillary and the dems in congress.
