After “NBC Nightly News” anchor Brian Williams this week recanted his story that he was on a U.S. military helicopter that was hit by RPG fire, many questions linger.
Williams first gave an apology to military publication Stars and Stripes about his Iraq story in 2003. “I made a mistake in recalling the events of 12 years ago,” he said on his top-rated show. “It didn’t take long to hear from some brave men and women in the air crews who were also in the desert.”
With the admission, his credibility may have taken a permanent hit that can never be reconciled. On social media websites, many people weren’t happy with Williams and said he should step down.
