Tom Brokaw has cancer. Tom Brokaw is one of the few remaining respectable journalists from the ‘old days.’ Now, he usually appears on NBC shows to spew his ideology. But when Brokaw was an anchorman, he was generally fair and down the middle. Now, he’s in for the fight of his life with cancer. Brokaw released the following 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 wish no ill-will towards Tom Brokaw. He is what he is, but he’s still a human being.
