Add conservative media watchdog L. Brent Bozell III to the list of those calling on NBC to dump nightly news anchor Brian Williams for claiming he was on a military copter under attack.
Bozell, of the Media Research Center, said in a tweet today: “Brian Williams has to go. NBC’s credibility is completely shot.”

Williams on Wednesday night said he simply made a “mistake” for making the claim that he was on the copter damaged by enemy fire for years. There has been no indication from the network that Williams is in trouble for his error.
