I'm so glad that Mr. Williams has made friends; I don't even mind him believing they are credible. Shouldn't his viewers be allowed to judge credibility for themselves by having all the known facts reported? Among the many victims of Shrub n' Thugs 8 years of Anti-American rule is a credible media.
