What do you think about this situation?
Brian Williams Lied.
He repeated the lie several times.
He was not on the plane or even in the same sortie
I understand that he arrived on a flight an hour or more after the incident.
He then equivocated when caught and tried to claim that his memory was "fuzzy". That is truly Bovine Scatology.

He could have shut this down quickly if his apology had been honest, sincere and unembelished.

When will offenders learn that lesson?
