Respond to of 1578097 Sarah Palin recalls how Brian Williams LIED about her in Alaska and got away with it. Sarah Palin: ‘Disgusting’ That Brian Williams’ ‘Corrupt Colleagues’ Covered for Him Palin brings up the time back in 2008 that Williams mentioned a false story that she banned books as governor of Alaska., .......................................................................................................................................................................................facebook.com Friends, this is a very important post May it help you nail the coffin that's given shelter to a corrupt press that would stop at nothing in their fight against right. Reports today claimed Tom Brokaw was calling on his former network to fire Brian Williams for lying for years about being hit by enemy fire in Iraq. Brokaw apparently denies the reports. (Personally, I hope Williams keeps his job as the face of network news to remind America how this all works, and to justify our complete turning away from his ilk in mainstream media.) It appears that some at NBC did know that Williams was lying for over a decade but never said a thing about it. Keep in mind that Williams repeated his bogus story many times on air, yukked it up with David Letterman over the made up drama, and even accepted praise as a "war hero." breitbart.com Let’s consider the herd mentality these journalists use to empower and cover for each other. It’s precisely the way a corrupt organization works, like a crime syndicate . Remember the “JournoList” scandal where hundreds of prominent members of the media were finally exposed for operating a secret internet chat group to strategize on how they would spin the news of the day to fit their leftwing agenda, regardless of truth? I haven't forgotten. They would stop at nothing. I lived it first hand as they began their relentless BS about my family, my hometown, and my record when I came on the national scene in 2008. dailycaller.com l.facebook.com R ight after my acceptance speech at the RNC in 2008 , Brian Williams repeated on national television a completely false story that I banned books while I served in office. He did so by reading on air a completely false op-ed by another unethical character who's never clarified nor apologized for including that outrageous censorship lie, among many others. (Thanks, Joe Klein, hope you're keeping it classy.) Those lies – proclaimed on air as if Williams was merely reporting "the news" – were heard by many that night . Lies like that were like a gut punch to my parents that knocked down the foundation of trust they've lived their good lives upon, for they realized, defenselessly, the power of a corrupt press. The media lies rung a bell that can never be “un-rung.” In the minds of millions of Americans , I was tainted as an anti-First Amendment book banning wacko. Brian Williams lied about me in order to affect the way I would be perceived by Americans during the 2008 election. He lies. There is no other way around it. But what’s especially disgusting is the way his corrupt colleagues covered for him. Don't be lulled into thinking this is only an NBC problem. It's all the major networks . Look, for example, at the outrageous media bias at CNN at the same time Williams was making up stories about his “war valor.” There is a serious problem with the liberal media’s herd mentality . It's too late for their mea culpa because they've already lost America’s trust, and that is a dangerous thing. But while they're still on our airwaves, they need to clean up their act as the rest of us turn to new media that will be held accountable. A free press is a cornerstone of our democracy. They have the tools to be our watchdogs, not liars and lapdogs for the powers that be. - Sarah Palin breitbart.com
