Brian Williams, Mara Gay, MSNBC - REALLY BAD AT MATH

This belongs in the Brian Williams highlight reel.



Not even close!

MSNBC put the tweet up. It wasn't like Williams and Mara Gay of the New York Times were caught off guard.

MARA GAY: Somebody tweeted recently that actually with the money he [Michael Bloomberg] spent he could have given every American a million dollars.

BRIAN WILLIAMS: I've got it. Let's put it up on the screen. When I read it tonight on social media, it kind of all became clear. 'Bloomberg spent $500 million on ads. The U.S. population is 327 million.' Don't tell us if you're ahead of us on the math. 'He could have given each American $1 million and have had lunch money left over.' It's an incredible way of putting it.

MARA GAY: It's an incredible way of putting it. It's true. It's disturbing. It does suggest, you know, what we're talking about here. There's too much money in politics.

NO, IT'S NOT TRUE! IT'S NOT AN INCREDIBLE WAY OF PUTTING IT! IT'S WRONG!

We're obviously WAY ahead of Williams and Gay on the math.

What "all became clear" is that Williams and Gay and those involved with them at MSNBC desperately need some remedial math classes.

MSNBC deals in Fake News.
