Maybe Roland got some of Brokaw’s experiences confused with his, but was Brokaw the sports correspondent in the Saigon bureau? That belongs to solely to Roland.

I understand what the ‘fog of war’ means. What is the ‘fog of memory’?

To the benefit of us non-Americans: who is this Brian Roland speaks about?

Brian Williams. An anchor who got caught lying about being in a helicopter that was shot down.

“But we have money!”

If it’s any comfort, Roland, you’re probably the only reporter to tour Reagan’s brain.

Government controls more of the news media than the corporations, without owning a single one. If the News doesn’t report what the Government wants, they are cut off from government sources. This sidesteps the Constitutional restrictions on control of the news media since the Government isn’t actually ordering them.

Brian Williams: The Only Newsman Who Ever Lied.

Whew! Glad that’s over.

Tell us more about your rich life experiences, Mr. O’Reilly!

“Sadly the corporations that own 95% of the all the news outlets ".As is pointed out above, every cell phone is a news outlet and thus, the corporations do not own 95% of the news outlets.

Misremembrance? Is that even a word? Sounds like something old whatsisname might have said, you know, president, right after Clinton, lemme think, it’ll come to me. . .

My dad used the word disremember when I was a kid and I thought he had made it up. Then I found out years later that disremember AND misremember are legitimate words. I think they are purely American english that have only recently experienced a comeback.

Brian Williams gets picked on too much. Bill O’Reilly has done the same thing as least 4 times as much.

The changes started under Regan and have been getting worse and worse ever since. My copy of the Code of Federal Regulations that I had to buy for my Broadcast Law class in 1978 is now only useful as a paperweight.

So, same as always? Or could you ever really trust any news source to give all the news objectively?

So billo will be kicked out soon too right? Nope. He works for faux news. Don’t forget GT’s wife used to be at nbc and was traded in for a younger model a few years back so he probably remains bitter toward nbc.

So it was Tom Brokaw that got a wedgie in his shorts, not Roland?
