Allison Williams has broken her silence about Brian Williams' six-month suspension from NBC News. During a Q&A with Seth Meyers at 92Y in New York City Wednesday, the Girls actress defended her father and assured the audience that the 55-year-old journalist will work hard to regain viewers' trust. 
 
 "This has been a really hard time. We have also been very lucky, counting our blessings. We have our health. We have each other. It's been incredible to experience the outreach from people you love, family, friends, and then people we don't even know, strangers, just reaching out saying we want him back on TV," she said. "It's been tough, though. Obviously, toughest on my dad, who bears the full burden of responsibility for it." Despite Brian's admission that he was untruthful about being fired at in Iraq in 2003, Allison told Meyers that she's in her father's corner. "One thing the experience has not done is shake my trust and belief in him as a man. He's a really good man. He's an honest man. He's a truthful man. He has so much integrity. He cares so much about journalism. And yes, he's a really good dad," she said. "I know you can trust him because, as any good daughter does, I've tested him on that." 
 
 When Brian was in Iraq, Allison was in ninth grade and hoping that he would return home in time for the father-daughter dance. "As that date was coming, it didn't seem like he was going to make it like he had promised," the Peter Pan Live! star said. "And then a couple days before the dance I was so upset and I got a surprise call from Iraq from my dad and he asked me if I had a date to the dance. So, that's the kind of man he is, and I can't wait for him to be back on TV, and I know many of you guys feel that way." ||||| Ok, Conan, you're not such a bad guy, after all. We admit that for a while Friday we thought @LovelyButton was a figment of your Twitter imagination (read: Freckles and the gang), but now that we've actually spoken to her and have seen firsthand what a sweetie she is, we approve of your first and only Twitter pal. 
 
 This afternoon, we spoke with Sarah Faith Killen and her fiance, John D. Slowik, Jr., via Skype from their bedroom in Fowlerville, Mich., and we intended to share that video until we saw what an amateur job we did with that recording. So, we'll tell you the story because that's what we do best here at Show Tracker: tell stories. 
 
 Sarah, 19, and John, 21, will celebrate their third anniversary on March 13 and are getting married on Sept. 25. Before Friday, they had no idea how they were going to pull that off. He was recently laid off and she is a student. They live with his father now, but plan to soon get a place of their own and enroll in the University of Michigan. 
 
 Since @conanobrien announced she was his "random" Twitter pal designee, Sarah has been showered with presents and attention, going from three followers to 12,713 in 24 hours. Strangers have practically planned her entire wedding for her, and someone sent her a new Apple computer. That was Matt from the Florida-based company, Hornblasters, by the way, who came to the rescue with an I-Mac when Sarah's Webcam malfunctioned and it looked like she was going to have to cancel an MTV News interview via Skype Friday night. 
 
 When Show Tracker first contacted the very cute Sarah, she wanted nothing to do with us. She had interpreted our post about her as "negative" and she sent a polite but firm "No, thank you" to us. Then, when she realized that Show Tracker has been Twitter Tracking Conan, his freckles, Sharpie, Taurus, Monkey, Squirrel, and Beard, she saw for herself that Show Tracker is basically insane but harmless and she felt more at ease. As she told us, "People will try to take you down and I'm trying to avoid that." 
 
 She's a sharp cookie, that one. Maybe that's why Conan picked her and not us. ||||| MATT LAUER is trying to pour cold water on our exclusive story in the new issue of The ENQUIRER that he walked out on his wife of 12 years after she furiously accused the Today star of cheating with at least two women. 
 
 
 
 In comments he made - along with his wife Annette - to People magazine on their website, Lauer claims "I have never moved out. I am not moving out. There is no truth to that." 
 
 
 
 But in his People denial, he won't go anywhere near the comments made to The ENQUIRER by his mother-in-law -- who confirmed the marital blowup and the fact that Matt has left the family apartment in New York City! 
 
 
 
 Last week, in our attempt to exhaustively report this bombshell story, The ENQUIRER traveled all the way to The Netherlands and interviewed Johanna Struijk, 67, who told The ENQUIRER that her daughter is doing fine in the wake of the breakup, saying: "It's OK, she is happy." 
 
 
 
 Annette's mom also informed The ENQUIRER that her daughter no longer wears her wedding ring! 
 
 
 
 While Johanna didn't want to discuss what triggered the breakup, sources told The ENQUIRER that an enraged Annette accused Matt of fooling around during the Today show's on-site coverage of the Winter Olympics in Vancouver, British Columbia. 
 
 
 
 For his part, Lauer counters that he was not out partying and claims he was "in bed most nights by 7:30 p.m." 
 
 
 
 Lauer should know that The ENQUIRER is standing by our story! 
 
 
 
 And we also want to point out that while he says he hasn't moved out of the apartment where Annette and their three children live we find it awfully strange that he's not leaving from there in the early morning hours to go to work. 
 
 
 
 We can reveal that our reporters have staked out the apartment in the early morning hours and we haven't seen Matt exit the place like he did in the past when he was living there. 
 
 
 
 However, Matt shows up at the Today studios like usual - meaning that he's coming from another location other than the family apartment where Annette lives with their three kids. 
 
 
 
 One reason why Lauer is trying to do damage control? 
 
 
 
 We report in our exclusive story that Matt has allegedly been pressured by NBC execs to keep the marriage going, say sources, since many of the show's female viewers prefer his image as a solid family man.
– Allison Williams is delaying her wedding to CollegeHumor co-founder Ricky Van Veen, but don't blame dad Brian. The brouhaha that led to his suspension from NBC News is just one reason, she explained to Seth Meyers during a Q&A Wednesday night at New York's 92nd Street Y. "It's been a very full year," the Girls star said, according to E!, when explaining her reasons. "You sort of think, 'What could possibly come along that would make me not think about [wedding planning]?' And then I got cast as Peter Pan and I think, 'Okay, I will think only about Neverland and then we'll go back to talking about our wedding.' Then current events started happening, so that derailed it a little bit, but it has been this really beautiful through line in our lives." She spoke more about her father, saying the situation has been tough, but "one thing the experience has not done is shake my trust and belief in him as a man. He's a really good man. He's an honest man. He's a truthful man. He has so much integrity. He cares so much about journalism. And yes, he's a really good dad. I know you can trust him because, as any good daughter does, I've tested him on that." In other Williams family news, Stars and Stripes reports Brian Williams yesterday stepped down from the board of the Congressional Medal of Honor Foundation; he joined the board in 2006. (Meanwhile, Williams' wife has stepped out for the first time since his suspension.)
