Hilarious Lyin' Brian Williams Memes Take Over Twitter

By Lisette Mejia

Life sucks for Brian Williams right now. The NBC Nightly News anchor has temporarily stepped down from his post following an admission that he actually wasn't in a military helicopter hit by enemy fire in Iraq in 2003 like he claimed for years. Instead, he was in the helicopter behind it but had "conflated" the two memories. Of course, Twitter won't let him forget his mistake, creating memes and making jokes using the hashtags #BrianWilliamsMisremembers and #BrianWilliamsMemories. Check out the best, ranging from O.J. Simpson to Star Trek parodies, and just try not to laugh.
