I am bummed that Williams felt the need to fabricate a story. But he is hardly the only one. Faux News is full of people who do, or did. Some of whom were still on air YEARS after being outed, and NEVER admitted to the lies. Regardless, Williams is, I guess surprisingly to some of the commenters here, hilariously funny. He is so wry with his humour. Someone said he is full of himself. I disagree, I think he is confident, and supremely intelligent. That could be seen as smug, but I don't get the impression he has a superiority complex. I can't imagine Seth would be friends with him if he did.
When you grow up with the likes of Cronkite, Huntley, Brinkley, Chancellor, and McGee you come to expect journalistic excellence and integrity. Brian Williams was firmly in that camp. Yes, he ef'd up for reasons that may very well be the fault of "the fog of memory", but that doesn't deter from his professionalism.
Whataboutism is bad regardless of your political affiliation. Lying is bad, period. What brian did should have gotten ANY journalist fired and banned from the industry. Only a fool would trust a known liar. Fool me once, shame on me...
I knew alison williams was a terrible actor, now I know why. I hate nepotism. Kids that are born with everything have to take the best jobs away from average people. Just gross.
Especially because it's not like her dad is an actor He's a journalist and those are two very different things just because they're both on TV means nothing
Brian needs his own show. Maybe once a week so he can play with his grandkids. Brian would be great at the weekend desk on SNL. Maybe Jost needs to find a new gig.
As an avid fan, is it ok to be concerned about Seth's alcohol intake? It's starting to feel like a real inside joke, curbed by jokes. Are any other jackals concerned? 🐾
@@SailingSeigniorno. Like himself. Why can't we admit when a popular figure has done something he shouldn't have? Do you already forget the story he finally admitted he fabricated?
@@SailingSeignior Exactly. This man is no different than Trump when it comes to honesty. No Democrat should ever listen to him. What type of AH lies about war for stolen valor.
@@SailingSeignior yes, we absolutely should. He shouldn't have even been permitted to run. Why do you assume I'm a Trump supporter, just because I'm willing to admit Brian Williams should be out of Job? We should hold everyone to basic standards of decency and honesty, on either side of the political aisle, and everywhere in between. Grow up. And frankly, a supposed journalist should be held even more firmly to standards of honesty. FFS. 🤦🏻♂️
@@kerrykehl2506he admitted to it himself, that a report that he came under fire in Iraq was not true. That's a matter of record. People might be trolling here, but it's still a fact. Why do we liberals only want to call out liars on the right? Williams has little credibility after that incident. There's an entire section in his Wikipedia bio related to "controversies", of which there are many. I can't understand why this guy still has a career, frankly.
So used to seeing Brian at the news desk being serious, I always forget what a funny person he is.
Making up war stories on national TV and lying about it for years is a pretty good but I agree
I have missed THIS voice and THAT dry humor for so many years.
I didn't realize I missed Brian Williams until I see this. Plus, he's funny and sharp as ever.
Bring back a white male News Anchor.
We love brian Williams and seth meyers
Thanks for being positive. Appreciate it. ❤
Stop speaking for everyone.
i miss journalists. Dan Rather's social media presence is great though. find him. follow him. ❤
Good eye, good ear you've got there. 🫶
I understand why he did so well when he was SNL host now 😂❤
Brian was brilliant on msnbc… I miss him and his style.
💯‼️
God I love when people call Seth out for his alcohol it's hilarious.
Have a great evening everyone thanks Seth
I love Alexander dreymon.🥰 So cool there's a connection with Brian here.
Arlo son of Alex
@thetruthno1 🥰 exactly
You trolls won...what is ur problem?
The “poorly educated” that Trump loves. Haven’t you ever seen a 2nd grader after they win a game of Trouble? Same thing.
Oh wow he’s a lot quicker with jokes, and a lot funnier, than I remember from seeing him on talk shows in the past. Lol
I miss Brian on msnbc
💯‼️
I love him forever. 💓
We miss Brian for sure.

Lol "supremely intelligent"
He spends his life reading words other people have written for him.
Someone's easily impressed 🤣
Reading is the gateway to intelligence.
Obviously slightly more than half the country is not well read.😂😂😂
And so many books have been banned ... 🤔

Trolls and bots are commenting, as usual.
Odd of you to call American patriots bot
I love how he comes on and embarrasses his daughter on national television. She will get him back next time she is on
Please tell Brian that giving his spot to Stephanie Rhule was a mistake.
So enjoyable to see this man enjoying his life, and his personality is nice to see now that he is free from the network , very enjoyable interview
I never thought we got the whole story about "Brian's Song." Think maybe he was guilty and took the hit. Right thing to do, but I'd like more info..
Cluck Cluck. Leave Biden alone, cheap shot guy.
sorry to hear that his show wore him down so much. brian was light years beyond who came next - not even close

I could not sync his voice with his face for a moment. He was a "somber?" newscaster; but this guy! Very Jackie Chan-ish in the momentness...
Wretched 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

I've always thought it was weird.
Do not miss Brian Williams . Starting
to sound like a Fox News Trumper .
He is, for real.
As witty as ever. Dachshunds used to have longer legs, lol. Also, haven't seen Gabourey Sidibe in a while! Where she at?
fade away bro.
He's the American Roger Moore❤
stolen valor. They fired him
so next up for brian williams seems to be a comedy stand up? who would have thought.. xP
Perhaps if he made up more stories....
Like Trump?
@@SailingSeigniorno. Like himself. Why can't we admit when a popular figure has done something he shouldn't have? Do you already forget the story he finally admitted he fabricated?

NEVER bring this liar back on. I wish the worst for him. Democracy is weaker because of lying reporters like him. He's no better than Joe Scarborough.
Aren't you angry! You act as if he betrayed you personally.
Joe is fine. Get a life.
I doubt his lie had any real impact on the outcome of the election.
Man, oh man, I can't agree. But I'm glad there's a place you can speak your mind.
nyet
He is so full of himself
That's your big input? Your comment is a waste of space.
@ nobody forced you to read it, much less, comment. Thus wasting more space I guess. But be my guest.

That's not spelling 🤦
@@00SmileTime00 No sh!t Sherlock 🤣
The remark about doing the math around when Arlo was conceived was insanely creepy. If anyone on the right had said similar, we'd be calling it out.
You missed the joke.
@@kerandurrant6043 Yep, they just don't get it. Humor isn't in their mindset
Oh lighten up.
Correction, Brian Williams is a liar
Proof?
If you don't like him, don't watch. Or even worse, post about it here.

He admitted it after he got caught. Folks, no reason to get all sensitive over Williams lol.
Thank you Seth for leading the way for Trump to have 2 presidential terms. You are my favorite late night host. ❤
I miss this guys daily day count of the trump presidency.
