Brian Williams was dressed EXACTLY like Obama in Berlin.
Same dark suit, white shirt, and light blue tie. Anyone else notice that?

1. I caught a short piece on KO
showing them walking together and KO mentioned it.

Oh, well

2. Wonder if it's like when women show up to an event in the same frock.
Did they comment on it? Was there any resentment? Or maybe they just joked about it, as I usually do in the same situation. :shrug:

3. KO commented
but the scene shown was a walk & talk about what would be the sound bite of the speech more or less. I had watched it in it's entirety on C-Span earlier and wasn't really interested in the talking heads commentary.

4. Not such a big deal with men.
There's not so many choices in formal attire. At the Oscars it's mostly black tux, black bowtie, white shirt.

5. But still, it was like Williams went to the same haberdasher as Obama.
They were like twins, sartorially speaking. Same color suit, shirt, and tie. It was eerie.

7. There you go. Another example of the media bias for Obama.
:sarcasm:

8. Twas not exactly the same...
If you look closely, Williams white shirt has the
'tight-closure' around the neck... the way a button down
collar might work.. he prolly had a neck pin keeping
the collar rising up his neck.

Obama's shirt had what's called a 'flat collar'
that lies down on the collarbone, a more relaxed fit.
Maybe Obama's neck isn't as long as Williams,
but I doubt it. Obama is long and tall...

12. I didn't like the tone of Williams' questions and statements, and from
Edited on Fri Jul-25-08 10:31 AM by MasonJar
the look on his face when the interview finished, I do not thnk Keith O did either. I was especially irritated at the question about the NBC poll.
