Brian Williams Suffers More than Most –

Brian Williams Suffers More than Most –

"Then they found some dude from a journalism school to remind everybody how reporters in the field suffer PTSD at alarming rates and we really should build them some kind of obelisk on the Washington mall. When asked off the record if any of this applied to Brian Williams, everybody responded fuck no, he’s just a lying sack of shit."

I really don't give a shit about the fact that Brian Williams is obviously bullshitting us, but for the record, Williams' excuse about his memory conflation is yet another obvious lie. If it were simply a matter of memory, why has he been telling the story falsely since it first happened, when memory would not have been an issue.

Don Helus, the pilot of the chopper that actually took the fire, says he contacted NBC way back in 2003 to report Williams' misreporting, but was ignored by the network brass.
