NBC officials are hoping to resolve their anchor nightmare "today or tomorrow," sources tell The Daily News. Brian Williams could lose his job, be slapped with a lengthy suspension or even return to the broadcast with a more heartfelt, honest — and specific — apology than the one he offered last week. Williams is under fire for exaggerating his experience while covering the Iraq War in 2003. For 12 years he has claimed to have been riding in a military helicopter that was hit with an enemy rocket-propelled grenade. Insiders insist that the decision is imminent because it is the only topic on which the entire top echelon at NBC News is focused. The wayward anchor has also been told by his network overseers to stay in New York and has met with top executives at Comcast, NBC's parent company, to discuss his future. Over the weekend, NBC launched an internal investigation, led by Richard Esposito, a former investigative reporter for ABC News, who is now the executive producer in charge of NBC's investigative unit.
