After breaking the news that NBC Nightly News anchor Brian Williams will be suspended indefinitely for six months without pay, Reliable Sources host Brian Stelter joined CNN’s AC360 to discuss the story with the Hollywood Reporter’s Marisa Guthrie and expressed doubt that “anyone in the country” believes that Williams “deserves a second chance” as NBC Universal CEO Steve Burke did in backing him.

In a memo made public shortly after the announcement, Burke emphasized that Williams “deserves a second chance and we are rooting for him” after the anchor had “shared his deep remorse with me and he is committed to winning back everyone’s trust.”
