but really think that this is a witch hunt for Brian Williams.

I consider this a guy doing a 'the fish I caught was this big' kind of story. It started out fine and got bigger over 12 years in the telling.

Just don't understand the need for torches and pitchforks. The guys and gals on Fox lie through their teeth all the time and get a free pass. Why?
