Even The Wolf likely can't clean up Harvey Weinstein's pending troubles

And it's impossible to read that without hearing it in Brokaw's voice.

 

I don’t think we’re going to be seeing Tom on Morning Joe any time soon.

 

Brokaw responds, including to the supposed lines he said right out of pulp fiction.

Tom Brokaw Rips "Sensational" Accuser Claims: I Was "Ambushed and Then Perp Walked"

 

"As I remember, she was at one end of a sofa, I was at the other. It was late and I had been up for 24 hours. As I got up to leave I may have leaned over for a perfunctory goodnight kiss, but my memory is that it happened at the door – on the cheek. No clenching her neck. That move she so vividly describes is NOT WHO I AM. Not in high school, college or thereafter."


I don't know, man ... reeks of effort.

 

A 'perfunctory goodnight kiss' in a young underling's hotel room can never look good.

 

Brokaw is supposed to speak at Kent State next Friday for their May 4 events. Wonder who will replace him.

 

Actually, the lean-in kiss took place at her apartment.

 

Same diff.

"Honey, I am going over to the apartment of a young female go-getter tonight, for a little mentoring time. I am planning for at least a lean-in kiss during the night. You good with that?"

 

John Skipper ... Tom Brokaw ... The Hollywood Reporter is killin' it these days.

 

Perfunctory goodnight kiss or more than passing affection?

 

Why's that tidbit from Curry only coming out now? She was done dirty by NBC, for sure, so it's tough not to think her opinion on anything Lauer-related is a bit biased. And understandably so.

 

Ol Peter Jennings got out at the right time.

I keep waiting for Stone Phillips to get caught in this just to think of him using that Dateline voice.

"Coming up, I'm going to try and ply you with Alabama Slammers and talk you back to my suite at the Waldorf. But first, you look incredibly sexy in that little black dress."
