It's also interesting to compare and contrast Brian Williams' actions when it's demonstrated that he got his story wrong with how O'Reilly handles himself:
Brian Williams is shown footage that it wasn't his helicopter shot down. He says "Wow, I was really wrong!" and apologizes.
O'Reilly knuckles under and insists that no matter what evidence you could possibly show him that he's misremembering or misreporting, HIS memory is what REALLY happened!!!!!1!!1 <-- His statements also include the '1's instead of exclamation points and he makes a face like this the whole time:
