Brian Williams “thinks he has one more swing at bat” in the TV business and is talking to a variety of networks — including ABC — which could cause big issues with their star anchors David Muir and George Stephanopoulos. One source said, “People forget that Brian is really funny, he’s always wanted to do an interview show that gives him room to have fun. Brian Williams on “The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon” in January 2015. The same could be true at CBS, although some sources have said that Williams’ salary requirements may be too lofty for the network. He’s going to do this right.”Meanwhile, Ali Velshi and Tom Llamas are two names that have been floated as possible replacements for Williams at 11 p.m. at MSNBC.
