No better. No worse.

So Brian Williams made up a heroic story, and he lied. Who cares? The news hasn't been known for integrity and honesty for years. They cover nothing of importance. They spend lots of time promoting gossip, politics, human interest stories, scandals, nonsense. ABC has a charming, and probably honest, host, in David Muir, but his diction sucks and the network spends too much time promoting Disney films. The network news at least is vapid, empty, dishonest, shallow, incomplete, commercial-ridden, and not nearly as valuable as Bill Maher,  Jon Stewart, and John Oliver. Should they fire Brian Williams? No. He's attractive, speaks well, and so what if he is an egocentric jerk who thinks he's much funnier than he is. His lie is a very small crime.
