Nearly four years after scandal, Brian Williams is grateful for his MSNBC "comeback," which he considers "uniquely American"

“I think I’m the recipient of something that is uniquely American,” says the host of MSNBC's The 11th Hour. “People like a comeback.” Williams was suspended for six months in February 2015, and ultimately stripped of his NBC Nightly News anchor job, for lying about his involvement in the 2003 Iraq invasion. “All I will say … is you have to go deep to properly examine everything,” he says. “I would not diminish the fact that this company saw me in a new and different role. I’m professionally happy and grateful in equal measure.”
