Tom Brokaw needs to fully retire - stop his speech-impedimented whining

Next to Walter Cronkite, Brokaw was the biggest network shill for the left with an unfortunate captive audience in the days of three networks.
He stuck his name on terrible book that had a great title only. It was a disjointed bunch of paragraphs, apparently writing by has various staffers.

Tom Brokaw: Fox News 'Is on a Jihad' to Destroy 'Institutions,' Protect Trump


By Tyler O'Neil December 21, 2017

In an exchange with "Morning Joe" co-host Mika Brzezinski on MSNBC Thursday morning, former NBC anchor Tom Brokaw accused Fox News of launching a "jihad" in defense of President Donald Trump and against American "institutions."
"Fox News, after Shepard Smith in the late afternoon, is on a jihad right now on the whole question about whether there’s a fairness about this or not, the transfer of uranium, for example, to Iran," Brokaw told Brzezinski.
He suggested that Fox anchor Shepard Smith represents the last reasonable voice on Fox News, and that after his show the network engages in this "jihad."
"The whole assault is on the institutions," Brokaw charged. "Newt Gingrich looking in the camera and saying the FBI is a corrupt organization. Three months earlier he said Bob Mueller is one of the great distinguished public servants that we have."
Brokaw concluded, "So we're at, you know, we're at war here and it's going to be sorted out in the final analysis."
