“She waits 25 years to drop the hammer?”

Jesus, now we have to worry about stuff that went on in high school 60 years ago?

I said nothing to him. He was sitting, and I was standing across the coffee table from him approximately four feet away. Now I could feel myself trembling. As I stood there, I asked in a frustrated and scared tone, “What do you want from me?”

With this kind of evidence, Brokaw doesn't stand a chance. Frustrated AND scared...

I read the complete article giving her version of what happened. Either she’s telling the truth, or she is a natural born storyteller. Is she of Irish heritage? Even if true though, even in her version, Tom did not rape or tear her clothes off or verbally abuse her.

Like a lot of guys, he takes a swing, and maybe he misses. She said she wasn’t interested, so he left.
Tom may have some damage control (or ‘splainin’) to do at home though.
The wife may not be as ‘entertained’ as some by all those tall tales, true or not.

I agree.

Accusing a man of 'inappropriate behavior' is the modern equivalent of 'WITCH!'

What drives these stories is the media hype.

Unfortunately the only way to get them to tone down the hype is to force them to live by the standards they demand of others.

I hate that it's come to this and I don't want to ramp it up but if it gets a few reporters to de-escalate their fanatical reporting about what constitutes sexual assault it may be quell the 'rape culture' hysteria.

Holy crap what did he want?

She was young,

she was pure,

She was new, she was nice,

She was fair, she was sweet seventeen.

He was old, he was vile,

And no stranger to vice,

He was base, he was bad, he was mean.

He had slyly inviegled her up to his flat,

To view his collection of stamps;

And he said as he hastened to put out the cat,

The wine, his cigar, and the lamps:

"Have some madeira, m'dear,

You really have nothing to fear;

I'm not trying to tempt you, that wouldn't be right,

You shouldn't drink spirits at this time of night.

Have some madeira, m'dear,

It's so very much nicer than beer.

I don't care for sherry, one cannot drink stout,

And port is a wine I can well do without.

It's simply a case of chacun á¡ son gout.

Have some madeira, m'dear!"

“You say the man expressed interest in women?”

God do I long for the days when women were still women and making a half assed pass or even asking wasn’t a felony. I’m afraid to even smile at them anymore.

“She says it was as a victim of sexual harassment by Tom Brokaw, the legendary newsman who manned the anchor desk for “NBC Nightly News” for 22 years and hosted “Today” and “Meet the Press.”

What did he do...compliment the bitch on a nice dress? Oh the humanity!

All one has to do is look at Brokaw’s EXPRESSION at the start of his show. Dead giveaway.

Good, can we finally rid ourselves of that slurry-mouthed bloviator they haul in to pontificate on every national tragedy?

Sounds like she is writing a chick novel.
