So, I pretty much LOVE Brian Williams.
Much like other women squeal with joy when they come across a movie with Matthew McConaughey, or a football game with Tom Brady, I do a double take when I happen upon a newscast featuring Brian Williams. He is my main Nightly News man.
I love his poise, I love his reporting, I love his awful side-part (He probably maintains that part even while he bathes) and I love the way he out-funnies John Stewart and Steven Colbert. I have visions of the children we would have: three little boys, all running around in miniature suits, with perfect articulation and the savant ability to read from a teleprompter (we would have several teleprompters in our home). They would emerge from the womb with a natural side part, and never, EVER stutter.
I mostly love him because I think he is playing a great big trick on everyone. He is HILARIOUS, but plays it cool for all the squares who like their Nightly News served to them in a more serious tone. I, however, am not fooled. With credits on such shows as The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, SNL, and Jimmy Fallon he has a pretty impressive comedy resume. He mostly just makes fun of reporting, and I love nothing more than a (news) man who can laugh at himself.
Also, he has a blog. A BLOG! Here it is!
I would put a photograph of Mr. Brian Williams on this blog, but I don't know a ton about copy right laws so I'm nervous to just pluck one off the internet and post it here. Don't worry; though: I created his likeness in a free paint document I found online.
Do you see the side part?
Thanks Brian.
You're a riot.
