NBC anchor Brian Williams mocks, belittles bloggers
"You're going to be up against people who have an opinion, a modem, and a bathrobe. All of my life, developing credentials to cover my field of work, and now I'm up against a guy named Vinny in an efficiency apartment in the Bronx who hasn't left the efficiency apartment in two years" -- Brian Williams, anchor of the "NBC Nightly News," speaking before New York University journalism students on the challenges traditional journalism faces from online media.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x7394954Of course, the whole point of this story was Williams moaning indirectly about Buckhead and the Freepers bringing down his lying, moonbat colleague Dan Rather, and as a result helping W to his second term victory over Senator Munster. But not one DUmmy realizes this. Because Williams portrays the typical blogger as a jobless, worthless, penniless bum, they immediately assume he's talking about them
The first jobless, worthless, penniless bum weighs in:

1. if that quote is 100% accurate and he chose 'efficiency', he shows his arrogant worthless side, &
I will not watch him again - and I watched him all the time. From my 1-bedroom apartment where I perform my menial servant work for the overlords!
ass.
DUmmy EmeraldCityGrl is a jobless, worthless, penniless chick, also too DUmb to understand what Williams was saying:

5. more like "developing velcro-lips".. all the better for attaching to the asses of the powerful
for the all-important "access"..Without the always-accessible media-schlubs, how would the powerful pass on their propaganda, Brian?
and whenever a journalist actually asks a tough question, they are immediately pilloried for having practiced "ambush journalism"
To DUmmy David Zephyr a one-room efficiency apartment in the Bronx represents the unattainable American dream. He's pissed:

8. What a snob. Notice the "efficiency apartment" snotty, classist comment?
Maybe Vinny is too poor to have a real one-bedroom apartment or a mulit-million dollar home like you, Brian Williams.
"Efficiency Apartment". Wow. What a ****ing snob.

11. Well, I take exception to the bathrobe accusation. Bathrobes
are obsolete aren't they, from another era, like Willians himself?
He's just scared. They can't lie with impunity anymore, and they were so not used to the people having a chance to say 'hey, wait a minute, that doesn't sound right' to their pampered faces.

16. That's rich coming from a limpballs fan...
This "reporter, anchor... newscaster" is not a journalist, but rather a blood-stained purveyor of corpoRATe bullshit. williams is a primo bullshit artist of the highest order, who does not but m$m infotainment for the ignorant masses who tune in to his nightly broadcast of bullshit.
A hearty **** YOU to williams and it's despicable existence.
Maybe FarLeftImpotentRage would have been a better name.
