What's your point, Mr. Wright?

Therein lies the problem. Mr. Williams, his employer and colleagues in the so-called "news" media world could all be described the way you just described Williams. They have treated the Iraq invasion and the military actions in other countries that have followed as though they're some glorious sporting event where the U.S. is the good guys and only doing what's right. You clowns in the MSM have never drilled down into the lies, deception and motivating forces behind these wars the U.S. has engaged in. Maybe in about 40 years, you clowns will have your phony mea culpas about all of this, like we've been recently seeing regarding Vietnam, but I ain't buying it.

You MSM clowns never make the connection in how all of this insane spending in the military has cost lives and investment in this country's infrastructure. No, you'd rather rah-rah this country into more wars and more deaths. Or, spend some inordinate amounts of time showing some celebrity clown show like the Kardashians.

Like I've said, follow the money. There's money to be made in wars and being complicit in them. Plus, NBC is owned by General Electric, the world's largest defense contractor.

And you idiots wonder why viewership in network news has fallen like a rock over the years.
