Delicious irony.

Did NBC air this insane Brian Williams 'trust' promo last night? Because ...hilarious.



Last night, around 7:00 PM, NBC allegedly began its Brian Williams rehab campaign. ...Or it screwed things up royally. No one is really sure.

Now, I'll admit: I did not see this. I can't claim to have personally spotted this particular bigfoot. However, we do know that this ad was running in heavy rotation right around the time that news of Brian Williams' little "exaggeration problem" broke. So it's certainly not inconceivable that someone mixed up the tapes, ran the spot, and then scrambled for a Central and Mountain Time replacement. Larry Sabato, director of the University of Virginia Center for Politics, saw the spot and tweeted: Did NBC air this insane Brian Williams 'trust' promo last night? Because ...hilarious In light of recent events, the ad is hilarious whether it was on air or not. Still, we're curious. Did anyone out there see it?
