Brian William’s got taken down by his lying about events in Iraq involving him. A really pathetic thing to do. Just like Hillary’s lie about being under sniper fire. If it didn’t happen don’t claim it did.

I think Brian learned his lesson.

Chris Hansen’s program was cancelled because its negatives for the network exceeded its positives, especially after the assistant da suicide in Texas.

He did have a sort of reboot though with a series that replayed some of the previous episodes, with him going background commentary on them.

I never cared for the show. It was guilty in my opinion of pretty much making news rather than respectfully reporting news.

Did the show influence police activities?

I would say so.

Although I saw no reason for anyone to be jailed.
