NBC's Brian Williams Knocks 'Hatred,' 'Venom' in Health Care Fight, Touts Objectivity
newbusters ^ | 4/1/10 | Scott Whitlock

Posted on 04/01/2010 9:10:22 PM PDT by Nachum

NBC Nightly News anchor Brian Williams appeared on the BBC podcast Americana on Sunday and asserted that "hatred" and "venom" were part of the health care debate. He then hyperbolically claimed, "I would sooner jab my hand into a food processor than take a side." [MP3 Audio available here.]

The NBC journalist seriously trumpeted, "In my line of work I never engage in opinions, anyway." BBC presenter Matt Frei interviewed Williams for the podcast. (H/T to DB from the Biased BBC website.)

After Frei asked if the health care battle was for the "soul of America," the news anchor oddly replied, "It might well be. We've had a lot of anger building in this country. A lot of it goes back to Bill Clinton's affair with an intern, then from the attacks of 9/11."

“hatred” and “venom”

Uh, Brian? Aren’t those two words subjective? What a dumb-ox!

Williams is very light upstairs, community college, not a consumer of knowledge and history, not a new thinker by any means. He believes he needs to tack hard left for his career growth and the protection he gains from the mainstream media crime families. I would be surprised if he has ever had an original idea - and if he ever managed to generate the mental power to express one that was contrary to the in vogue leftist thought, he would be bounced quicker than one could say “racist tea bagger”!
