Brian Williams Thinks Bailed-Out Biggies Make Too Much—So When Will He Take Pay Cut?
FinkelBlog ^ | Mark Finkelstein


Add Brian Williams to the list of proud multi-millionaire populists at NBC/MSNBC. The Nightly News host just declared on Andrea Mitchell’s MSNBC show today that “a lot of us know that . . . something is basically not right” about how much money some people at companies receiving government bail-outs are making.

You mean, like someone making at least $10 million a year working for a company whose subsidiary recently received a $139 billion loan guarantee from the federal government? Somebody like . . . Brian Williams?

That’s right. As reported here, the US government has agreed to guarantee as much as $139 billion of the debt of GE Capital Corp., a subsidiary of GE, which just happens also to own . . . NBC and MSNBC.

Pretty bad considering how GE continued to trade with Iran even though it was illegal to do so.

GE getting my tax dollars is at the top of the list of pizzing me off!
