Tom Brokaw Signs Off

Where Have You Gone, Tom Brokaw?
Tom Brokaw ended his tenure as anchor of NBC's Nightly News, and I think it's appropriate to take a few minutes to look back at his career.
I remember when Tom made his debut broadcast. I was four.
The next day, everyone at preschool was talking. Even among preschoolers, it was immediately clear that he was "the man to beat". Dan Rather hadn't yet appeared, and we all knew Peter Jennings probably had no friends.
The face of broadcast journalism is undergoing a dramatic makeover in the next few years. Let's pray that losers like Brian Williams don't ruin it for everybody.
