The ongoing disgrace of NBC News and Brian Williams

Another story from the NYT further exposes the corruption of NBC's reliance on Gen. Barry McCaffrey as an "independent military analyst."

    If this in-depth NYT story doesn't do it what will?

    Thanks for continuing to push this outrage. McCaffrey was brought out to talk first about Mumbai. What the hell kind of expert is he on that story even with all his compromised ethics?

    It makes it much more difficult for Williams and his NBC bosses to recognize corporate influence and the damage the congressional-M$M-military-industrial complex does to our nation and the world when they are so mired in the same corruption. Once again hypocrisy continues to reign unabated in a profession that is supposed to provide checks and balances to uncover just this kind of insidious influence.
