How Brian Williams’s Second Act As a Comedian Has Aided His ‘Nightly News’ Anchor Job.

The evening we meet, protests are still roiling the streets of Cairo, Libya is descending into civil war, and the NBC Nightly News anchor is coming off a reporting trip to Egypt. He has also just finished a two-week stretch in which he visited The Daily Show, Letterman, and Late Night With Jimmy Fallon.

Last Updated 1/12/12 by Avery Lund Q: What's the latest news regarding SURGE? Is it coming back? A: From April 2004 until March 2005, SaveSURGE.org worked closely with a Coca-Cola executive on several projects to prove that there is a market for SURGE. We conducted a survey, ran several "Contact Coca-Cola" days and even a "Bring SURGE to Wal-Mart" campaign. The Wal-Mart campaign looked to be successful, as the retail giant contacted Coca-Cola about the possible sale of SURGE. Shockingly, Coca-Cola turned Wal-Mart down and has broken a lot of hearts in our community. However, there is great news! Q: What is the status of Vault? Q: Now that you've started VaultKicks.org, what will happen to SaveSURGE.org? Q: Does of all this mean that SURGE is never coming back? Q: Why is SaveSURGE.org supporting Vault?
