Rachel Maddow And Maria Shriver Co-Signed An Open Letter Of Support For Tom Brokaw
Much like an alien from V, you can’t peer too closely at a celebrity in 2018 without his face being ripped off to reveal him as a possible sexual predator. Former NBC News anchor Tom Brokaw, 78, is the latest calming voice of newscasting reason to be accused of sexually harassing co-workers (and ruining milk and cookies for everyone). Tom must make a helluva pumpernickel spinach dip for the annual Celebrity Newscaster Christmas Party, because 64 of his former colleagues (including Rachel Maddow, Maria Shriver, and NBC News’ Andrea Mitchell) have co-signed an open letter in his defense. Looks like the #TimesUp female solidarity clock’s batteries need changing.
Former NBC Employees Have Accused Tom Brokaw Of Sexual Harassment
It looks like Charlie Rose can add another name to the guest list for his #MeToo atonement series. 78-year-old Tom Brokaw, former anchor of NBC Nightly News and stereotypical serious old man voice-haver, has been accused of sexual harassment by former NBC News staffers.
Tom Brokaw Wants That Lying Lie-Teller Liar Brian Williams Fired
If that picture was taken yesterday, Tom Brokaw would be thinking to himself, “Grrrrr… I just want to stick a rolled-up pink slip up that lying sack of lie’s ass, pull it out, stick it in his smuggy lie hole and make it so that he can’t even get a job reviewing butt plugs at 3am on Public Access in Stockton, CA.”
On Wednesday night, the world we live in became a confusing and unfamiliar place and most of us wandered the land not knowing what to believe when Brian Williams admitted that he was never in a chopper that was hit by RPG fire in Iraq in 2003. Brian was actually safely traveling in a different chopper. How can we believe anything now that Brian Williams has dribbled out lies to us? When Brian Williams says, “Good evening, I’m Brian Williams and this is the Nighty News,” do we know for sure it’s the evening and that it’s a good evening and that his name really is Brian Williams? Is that picture of Brian Williams’ supposed bulge a picture of his actual bulge or did he just stuff his khakis with the sack he keeps his lies in? Everything is squint-worthy now!!!
Tom Brokaw Has Cancer
In news that’ll make you want to cunt punt cancer once again, NBC news anchor Tom Brokaw said in a statement today that for the past 6 months he’s been getting treatment for cancer. In August, doctors diagnosed 72-year-old Tom Brokaw with multiple myeloma, a type of cancer that fucks with the blood and bone marrow. Tom Brokaw (I feel weird just calling him “Tom“) said that the doctors are optimistic. Here’s his full statement:
“With the exceptional support of my family, medical team and friends, I am very optimistic about the future and look forward to continuing my life, my work and adventures still to come.”
I remain the luckiest guy I know.
I am very grateful for the interest in my condition but I also hope everyone understands I wish to keep this a private matter.”
I read that entire statement in Tom Brokaw’s calm, professional newsman voice and it was weirdly soothing. If Tom Brokaw told me in his calm, professional newsman voice that a rabid tiger was right behind me waiting to pounce on my head and eat me, I’d probably stay calm, shrug and say okay. Tom Brokaw’s voice is that soothing.
And Tom Brokaw should do a segment where he explains multiple myeloma the same way he explained Canada to us dumb Americans. Because Tom Brokaw is good at explaining things.
