AND NOW THE NEWS...
I just happened to watch the feed on line. I have a great respect for Brian Williams. What I saw was Brian asking the right questions and digging deeper to try to understand the responses he received. How is questioning anyone disrespectful? I feel that Mr. Williams is representing me to the president and he gets to ask the man face to face what I would like to ask him myself.

I watched parts of the interview on Hardball and Countdown.I believe you were respectful of the office and the occupant.I recalled watching bits of Bill Oreilly interview with the President in 2004 in the heat of the presidential election campaign and could not but noticed that the anchor asked and answered the questions on behalf of his guest.Fox News folks are not use to non scripted interviews,we MSNBC folks expect HARDBALL questions to whoever and not sychophancy.
Good job Brian,keep it up.

Brian Great Job. This is what a Journalist should ask. Questioning of this sort done before the Iraq invasion would have saved us from the mess we are in. We need to recover the real journalism. It is already enough with partisan propaganda. Real journalism is for finding and exposing the truth. Thank you so much.
