    OT -- nffcnnr, -- Timothy3

    Tim3, I'm with you. I love to mock Tom "Greatest d'Generation" Brokaw and nffcnnr's link is good ammo, but the Brian Williams Vinny quote never fails to make me laugh out loud. It just kicks my ass that man-diva Williams unwittingly reveals so much of himself. And what a freakin hypocrite.

    "You're going to be up against people who have an opinion, a modem, and a bathrobe. All of my life, developing credentials to cover my field of work..."-- Brian Williams

    Sure Williams is peeved. Guys like Vinny without discernable credentials who haven't had to work their way up from the minors while paying their dues suddenly just insinuate themselves into the profession out of nowhere. It's like who died and made you... Well that's enough of that topic, now it's over to you Luke Russert.
