Brian Williams on Leno
Just said "I don't know how Hillary gets elected given the red/blue electoral map." (paraphrase).

As a network anchor I think he is going to have to learn to stay away from statements that can be construed as partisan, or have a partisan influence.

1. He has great 'weasel' and 'whore' potential yet untapped.

2. I stopped watching those
"whores" years a couple of years ago.

We knew he would come in and be worse than brokaw.

4. Agree. Neither are in my sphere of interest.
And yet I had to check out this thread for "train wreck" purposes.

5. Sometimes we just can't help ourselves, can we?
That's why those impulse items on the shelves near the register continue to sell.

3. I've seen him on TV a lot lately
and he has worn the same purple tie each time.

6. He's been a whore since the day MSNBC went on the air.
Can't believe he's taking over for Brokaw. Totally slanted questions (Repug-slanted) ... thoroughly smug ... miserable excuse for a journalist.

There was a profile on him in NYT magazine a few years ago that turned off EVERYONE I know. NO ONE likes the guy.

My family has watched NBC News since TV came into our home (long before I was born).

The cycle stops when Brian Williams takes over. He SUCKS!

If a major network MUST pick yet another white man to be the lead anchor, couldn't they at least pick one who isn't a waste of protoplasm?

11. Did you see his (BW) coverage of Arafat's funeral?
He was about to shat himself when the faithful started to fire guns in the air. "Those bullets have to land somewhere.....they fall to the ground at 120 mph."

Of course he was hoping for all out mayhem and carnage just so long as it didn't muss his hair.
