NBC Insider didn't say Norah O'Donnell reported for Nightly, he/she said Brian Williams was flexing his muscles...
Norah did not report much for Nightly, and now you know why.
She won't be reporting for Nightly at all anymore. |

Where is Russert flexing his muscle these days? If I remember right he fought hard for Mik to get the top WH slot instead of the Bloom/Shipman team. I think thats when they got rid of Ed Rabel and sent Mik from years as the White House/Today shift to become the main Pentagon correspondent. Will he fight for Mik to stay if the post is accurate?
I think Mik and BW were at the White House together in the early Clinton years.
As for Norah - looks good and was good covering Congress but not ready for prime time at the WH.
As for Siegenthaler I never could get the attraction to anchor both nights on the weekend let alone one...send him back to MSNBC.
