Well obviously someone should be , and Ben Shapiro thinks it’s Williams.  NBC’s handling of the Trayvon Martin story was horrifying, and could have led to riots.

And neither did the other MSM outlets, nor, alas, our president, try to get the necessary “let’s wait for more facts” message through during the key early days of the story.

I hear that some on Fox were pretty bad as well, but I think what we’re really seeing here is that the MSM folks do not understand that a good 40% the nation will never return to watching them unless they undertake radical reform.

And if no heads roll at NBC news for this, we will know that it is an organization incapable of even minor reform.  Of even policing itself from public-safety-endangering schemes of outright deception.
