10/7/08- TWD's Agenda For the Day- The Decline of a Reputable Journalist


Photo from Wikipedia

Never ever would I have thought to utter the following sentences, but critical times such as these prompt me to even do so in steadfast fashion: Tom Brokaw is embarrassing himself, and it is sad to see.

Whenever you heard the name Brokaw, you assume a standard of journalist that could only be matched by the "elites" of the field, for he was considered the "elite." Along with the late Peter Jennings and the still humble and competent Dan Rather (who came to BU by the way and showed how classy he was a fortnight ago), whenever you turned on news at 6:30, Tom Brokaw rounded out a trifecta that made the evening news of the broadcast networks seem both infallible and fair to the truth (and only the truth.)

In short, you could always trust Brokaw to truly put the people first.

Until now.

Because over this election period, from the primaries at the beginning of the year to now, Brokaw has sadly indeed sullied his reputation. We will more on this later.

As usual, DemFromCt's A.P.R.U is indeed classic stuff, including Richard Cohen's hit job" om the media.

The Pending Schedule is located in the comments section. And a great shoutout to my friend Alicia. THANKS!!!!!
