drobeski 3,061 Posted February 22, 2015 what difference did it make that Williams did it? Other than you think of him as a mouthpiece for the left? Really, neither made much of a difference...one lost his credibility as he should have. Can't be a news guy and embelish like that. THe other will fight and his supporters don't care if he lies. ask his bosses ? pretty sure i didn't suspend him. Who's mentioned what williams did other than you ?

Its f7nny how you cared so much when it was Williams and you blasted him. Now all of a sudden lying doesn't matter. Id ask why is that...but the reason is clear.

NewbieJr 541 Posted February 23, 2015 I'm pretty sure everyone knows that. And has no problem with him losing his job for it. His question is, what are your feelings on O'Reilly if it's shown that he did the same thing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IGotWorms 4,063 Posted February 23, 2015 I gotta hand it to O'Reilly, if he gets out of this--and I'm sure he will-- then he really turned this around to his advantage. Apparently talking about it on his show, so he's using it as another talking point and to gain ratings/drum up interest. Clever. Williams could not have done that because his show was legitimate news. But as an entertainer O'Reilly is playing by a whole different set of rules Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GobbleDog 1,010 Posted February 23, 2015 Even if it's true, it wouldn't have the sane effect as Williams lying. O'Reilly is an opinion guy. Not a journalist. Williams is supposed to be reporting the news. Facts. For him to be a known liar ruins his credibility.I watch(ed) Brian Williams because he has the best anchorman persona of all the major networks. Not for his "honest reporting" because he doesn't do any actual investigation. That's the job of the real reporters. Now that he's been caught embellishing a personal story, people act like he can't be trusted to say "in the news today..." as if the next sentence will be totally fictitious. As for Orielly, nobody cares what he says anyway except for die hard conservatives. And they don't care if he lies, as long as it corresponds with whatever Rush Limbaugh says.

NewbieJr 541 Posted February 23, 2015 I know, Gobbledog. I said as much myself earlier in the thread. O'Reilly isn't expected to tell the truth the way Williams was. And his fanboys certainly don't care. They'd be more inclined to stop listening to him if he ever told the total truth and praised someone who was a Democrat. He says exactly what he knows his listeners want him to say. But unlike Williams, the public knows that O'Reilly is just an op-ed guy. He's not supposed to be reporting facts.

One reports the news and one comments on the news. There is a big difference between the two. Or their is supposed to be a big difference between the two. With today's biased media, it's becoming more acceptable for those that are supposed to report the news to slant a story based on their beliefs. Print media has been getting away with this for decades. I'm actually surprised Williams got a six month time out for this. I don't feel he should have. He tried to strengthen his credibility and got caught. The network execs got scared and didn't back him. You rarely see the left do that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
