the problem is not brian williams' comparison, the problem is brian williams.irst of all, in his defense, you give that guy a job like what he has now on msnbc. basically, he was demoted to the child's table. and he has to talk. we first saw him back on msnbc talking about the pope walking through hours and hours of pope. so when you have somebody like that talking with that cadence for that long, he is bound to say something stupid. the second thing about brian williams, he is a fame whore. he loves to be associated and in the thing. >> achilles heel. >> he made more appearances on late night television than all the other news anchors combined. i don't think he was completely out of line with this. it might have been a little offlore. but, again, when the internet up with rage, it's usually the opposite of rage. oh, that made me think something. jerk. >> exactly. i've said worse things on this show and never got in trouble. nobody cares. >> brian williams should be flattered that that many people were watching his broadcast and took offense and commented. if w

but sadly, that's not the case. >> and that was my colleague brian williams' interview with eyewitness jones there in nice. brian levin is a terrorism analyst, professor of criminal justice at california state san bernardino. brian, with a welcome to you. so you heard brian williams bring up that point where at first when something like this happens -- i mean it is a truck, and you think, oh, perhaps this is somebody who has had a medical emergency. it was very apparent shortly thereafter by the eyewitness accounts and by everything that we've seen that was not the case. but as you've studied criminal justice and the level of terrorism that we're dealing with here in this country, how unique is this m.o., this motive operation? >> a great question. we've seen it in theater in places like syria. there was also in quebec, in 2014, someone who tried to join isis ran over a couple of people. about 10 years ago in 2006, we saw someone in north carolina run over and severely injure about nine people. and both "inspire" magazine, which is al qaeda's web zine if you will, internet magazine, th

brian williams. he was a trauma surgeon on duty. he said the experience is personal for him and he thinks about it every day. >> i understand the anger and the frustration and distrust of law enforcement, but they're not the problem. the problem is the lack of open discussions about the impact of race relations in this country. and i think about it every day. that i wasn't able to save those cops when they came here that night. it weighs on my mind constantly. this killing, it has to stop. >> dr. brian williams joins me now. thank you, doctor. how are you? >> thank you for having me. i'm getting by. >> yeah. that was just a, you know, a courtesy how are you, but really, i was watching you today. how are you doing? how are you doing? >> how am i doing? that is somewhat difficult to answer. i'm -- i go hour to hour. this incident has been playing in my mind constantly. it's -- it's like this bad movie on an endless loop. but going to work has forced me to kind of push it aside temporarily, but it continues to break through. and i disc

too soon about brian williams? what? ( applause ) did i do that? okay.tionship with hillary from the beginning some of her accomplishments we may not have known about, some personal anecdotes, and then he starts to talk about what happened in 1997, and that's close to '98. oh, my god. i know what happened in 1998! is he going to talk about the-- whaaaaa? >> 1997 was the year chelsea finished high school and went to college. ( cheers and applause ) now fast forward. in 1999... >> larry: no, no, no! no, no no! fast forward! no, pause, pause rewind! play back in slo-mo! you should talk about that (bleep), man! was there any more human moment than when you stepped out on your lady and everyone saw it and we was like "ohhhhh (bleep)!" and you were like, "i know. i know!" okay, obviously he's not going to say that but rather than saying "fast forward," he could have said, "and then i had one of my worst moments, both as a president and as a husband. and without the strength of my wife standing by my side, against all odds and public opinion, i would never be t

brian williams. i want to state first and foremost i stand with the dallas police department. i stand with law enforcement all over this country. this experience has been very personal for me. a turning point in my life. there was an added dynamic of officers being shot. but the days of more black men dying at the hands of police officers affected me. i think the reasons a obvious. i fit that demographic of individuals. but i agree with their families. i understand the anger and the frustration and distrust of law enforcement. but they are not the problem. the problem is the lack of open discussions about the impact of race relations in this country. i think about it every day that i was unable to save those cop when is they came here that night. it weighs on my mind constantly. this killing has to stop. black men dying and being forgotten, people retaliating. we have to come together and end all this. aye like to open it up for questions. >> can you describe the scene of the emergency room that nigh

brian williams spoke with kerry clark when the attack occurred. she described when she first realized something was wrong. >> i was sitting outside in the middle of the promenade. and there was no traffic because it was full of pedestrians and so i was sitting, watching the fireworks. the fireworks ended and then lots of people were coming up from the the promenade to get to their cars or to get home and then just out of the blue, a big white truck just came speeding down and on the side i was sitting on, and went up on to the pavement and just kept zigzagging down and i mean, i was just following be we wry eyes the truck and when i looked back i saw all these bodies on the ground in front of me and everyone was screaming and everyone wus just like get out of here because they were afraid there was bombs in their truck so we all just started to go towards the center back from the program nad screen to watch the train stigs in that area and it was a just me, him and all these small children screaming, and terrified and it was -- it was unreal. i me
