Brian The Blogger

“I don’t have a therapist. I have my blog.” That’s what NBC Nightly News anchor Brian Williams told his wife, while explaining the concept of The Daily Nightly.

Today the NYT’s Jacques Steinberg writes the first profile of Williams’ blog. He says the dispatches are striking in two main respects: “One is the light he periodically sheds, in real time, on deliberations among his ‘NBC Nightly News’ colleagues, including their disagreements on the evolving lineup of that night’s newscast. The other is the criticism he occasionally levels at himself and the program when he feels either has come up short.

> Also: “No TV News For TVNewser,” FishbowlDC says, referring to my quote in the NYT story: “It makes me want to watch the evening news, and I haven’t watched in years.”
