Competitors' whispers about
Brian Williams going to Iraq to boost ratings are "gross, disgusting," says NBC News president
Steve Capus. "I would expect better from people in this industry. We don't put people in harm's way as cheap ratings ploys." Williams' wife, Jane, adds: "I am profoundly offended that anyone could imagine ratings being more important to Brian than his family. We have been talking about this in our house for months and months."
