For those of us tuning in late, what did Brokaw say?

It was advertised as a piece about how an American soldier helped liberate Torino from the Germans in WWII.

This particular soldier, Vernon Baker, happens to be black, and of course, fitting the MSM template, Brokaw had to steer the story to how racist America was and still is now. The word "Torino" was mentioned maybe five times. But the words "racist", "racism", "white officers" and "n-----" were repeated ad nauseum.

It went on for nearly an hour. By the end, Brokaw had cast a more favorable light on the German army than our own. Typical. :-/
