Well, this is ironic. This week, Brian Williams tackled the epidemic of “fake news” on MSNBC. During the report, he seemed to forget that he was the mainstream media’s number one purveyor of fake news before he got sacked by NBC.
In 2003, Brian Williams went on-location in Iraq to witness the War on Terror firsthand. According to Williams, the helicopter he was using to tour the country was nearly shot down by enemy combatants during his trip. He recounted this story on-air after the attack occurred.
Except the attack never actually happened. Williams was never in any danger and his helicopter was never under fire. He made the entire thing up.
His lies weren’t revealed for over a decade, as no one seemed to question the validity of the story. It aired on mainstream media, and people tend to believe that everything said on broadcast cast news is true.
In reality, the mainstream media is just as susceptible to fake news as alternative media — which makes William’s latest report all the more ironic.
Watch Williams criticize the “fake news” phenomenon on the next page:
You have got to be kidding. You got this guy to do a F**E NEWS story!!!! King of the f**e news!!!! HAHAHAHA
Donald Trump is the biggest f**e and liar on the planet! HaHaHa!
You people are all idiots! You don’t see a snake salesman (Trump) that’s left a path of destruction in his wake! You people are the most gullible nitwits on the face of the planet!
T**d.
Lying is Ok, f**e news must go.
What? We still remember the body floating past your hotel down in New Orleans that never happened, the rocket fire on your plane that never happened, exaggeration is simply a lie.

At last..an example of waiting for the garbage truck to enter the trash dump and reloading 3 year old trash in hopes it will not be missing when hauled out. After all they only weight the truck going in but not coming out. But it sure is time to start checking coming and going.
Loser
