personal stories is ongoing, but a list of examples is already starting to build. As these examples leak out, it&#39;s important to keep in mind that not every inconsistency in Williams&#39; history qualifies as a lie.&nbsp;For instance, there are two examples of possible &#39;embellishment&#39; that have surfaced recently, including&nbsp;<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150704114835/http://money.cnn.com/2015/02/07/media/brian-williams-hurricane-katrina/">Hurricane Katrina</a>&nbsp;and<b>&nbsp;</b><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150704114835/http://money.cnn.com/2015/02/12/media/brian-williams-investigation-questions/index.html">Pope John Paul II</a>, which only reflect minor inconsistencies. They are doubted narratives, not disputed ones. The reader might think twice about adding them to the list of Williams&#39; wrongdoings simply because they&#39;ve been reported on.</p> <p>There are, however, three real examples that should raise red flags. They are:</p> <p><strong>&#39;Choppergate&#39;</strong></p> <p>During the January 30, 2015, NBC Nightly News broadcast,&nbsp;Brian Williams referred to &quot;a terrible moment a dozen years back during the invasion of Iraq when the helicopter we were traveling in was forced down after being hit by an RPG.&quot; Williams later said he was not in the the helicopter that was hit by an RPG, but in&nbsp;a helicopter direclty behind it. The pilots of Williams&#39; helicopter <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150704114835/http://www.politico.com/blogs/media/2015/02/brian-williams-is-in-serious-trouble-202226.html?ml=bp">say</a> their chopper was not directly behind the hit Chinook, but in a different company altogether.</p> <p><strong>SEAL Team 6</strong></p> <p>During the May 3, 2011, NBC Nightly News broadcast, Williams said that he had &quot;the great honor of flying into Baghdad with [SEAL Team 6] at the start of the war.&quot; A Special Operations Command spokesman has&nbsp;<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150704114835/http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/02/12/brian-williams-seal-team-6_n_6663570.html?utm_hp_ref=the-backstory">told Huffington Post</a>: &quot;We do not embed journalists with this or any other unit that conducts counter-terrorism missions.&quot; Said another SEAL officer&nbsp;<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150704114835/http://www.cnn.com/2015/02/13/opinion/bergen-brian-williams-seal-team-six/">to CNN</a>:&nbsp;&quot;That early in the conflict, there were only missions taking place, not bouncing between outstations.&quot;</p> <p><strong>The Berlin Wall</strong></p> <p>At a 2008 forum at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library, Williams said that he&nbsp;&quot;was at the Brandenburg Gate the night the [Berlin] wall came down.&quot; As&nbsp;<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150704114835/http://money.cnn.com/2015/02/12/media/brian-williams-investigation-questions/index.html">CNN reports</a>, &quot;&#39;the night the wall came down&#39; is widely recognized as November 9, 1989. ... An NBC News source in a position to know confirmed to CNNMoney that &quot;Brian arrived the day after the wall came down.&quot;</p> <p>Those of you keeping track at home would do well to follow CNN&#39;s <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150704114835/https://twitter.com/tomkludt">Tom Klludt</a>, who&#39;s been pretty consistent calling the balls and strikes on Williams.
