Evidently.

He left NBC in 2004 (I believe it was).

Can you trust he has retired?

Do you believe he trusts the new generation at NBC?

Why pay attention to what Tom says or writes? Anything he says or writes is just to support a selected narrative.

JoeMika had him on after Impeachment and he did fair but looked like shit.

Election Night he completely lost his train of thought and they jerked the slack out of him. Someone broke the news to him that night: Buh-bye.

If I never see him or Donaldson or Blather ever again, it will be a joy untold.

#2: "I thought he was dead."

No, Brokaw just smells that way.

His trust is well placed. The new generation of (fake) journalists is almost as “unbiased” as he was.

RIP Tom.

In 2008, I worked the DNC convention as a TV director and hung with Tom for a day. I admitted to him that I was “working behind enemy lines”. He was very personable and easy to connect with. I learned that he has contempt for both parties. He was quite the little bitch and I liked that.

Maybe they will give him a new well fitted set of false teeth for a retirement gift. The recycled ones they got him from the Salvation Army have worked, but not well, over the last couple decades. His constant lisping has let many to believe that he is gay.

Retiring a second time?

Sure, he would appear on the scene for special occasions for which I’m sure he was paid, but him no longer being “retired” was never something I knew was a thing.

It’s about the 5th time he’s retired.
