Embattled NBC news anchor Brian Williams faced fierce criticism after admitting that his Iraq war story, in which he was allegedly shot at by an RPG while flying in a helicopter in 2003, was a complete and utter fable.

Amid the controversy, Williams was further excoriated when tales he recounted during Hurricane Katrina crumbled under close scrutiny.

Williams' excuse for fabricating false reports? The "fog of memory" caused him to "misremember" what happened.

Williams has since taken a leave of absence, but between shots taken at him by his pals in the corporate media, the online social media community has also chimed in with some hilarious memes.
