Tom Browkaw Joins The Wrong Side Of The 'Me Too' Movement
What took ya so long, Tommy?
[Boston Herald] - NEW YORK ‐ A woman who worked as a war correspondent for NBC News said Tom Brokaw groped her, twice tried to forcibly kiss her and made inappropriate overtures attempting to have an affair, according to two reports published Thursday.

Linda Vester told Variety and the Washington Post that the misbehavior from the longtime news anchor at the network took place in NBC offices in Denver and New York in the 1990s, when she was in her 20s. Variety reports that Vester, now 52, showed them journals from the time that corroborated the story.

Brokaw, who is 78 and has been married since 1962, denied doing anything inappropriate.

#2 He's guilty until PROVEN innocent, just like all the rest. Interesting timing, coming on top of the Cosby conviction. Hat tip to her legal team.
