Brian Williams might be the most famous purveyor of fake news this century, but that hasn’t stopped him from criticizing Donald Trump’s accusations of fraudulent reporting.
Williams is lucky he’s even still a member of the liberal media. The former broadcast anchor lost his position at NBC after a decade’s worth of lies and exaggerations were brought to light. After a too-brief hiatus, Williams was redeployed to help turn around MSNBC.
Once there, he almost immediately began criticizing the phenomenon of internet-based “fake news” — ironic, given his past personal ties to the subject.
But now that fake news has gone mainstream, Williams seems to have switched sides. He’s now defending the media against an onslaught of attacks made by Donald Trump.
Watch as Williams attacks Trump for “diminishing’ the prestige of media on the next page:
It’s the media that is causing people to stop having faith in the media. You never hear them say anything good, it’s all one-sided and you can always tell WHO they are going to attack next. They allow nothing but coverage of the terrorist group, take away the attention from them and they will start to go away. They are getting exactly what they want.
They didn’t need Trump to do it! They did a good job of that all on their own!
