is there anybody in the world who dislikes tom brokaw? does such a person exist? i've always liked him. i know people criticize his speech pattern, but i think it's kind of soothing. for sure, his voice is. i'm watching the colbert report. stephen wants to be secretary of state. he thinks brokaw is out to compete.
tb: ...i think that public service is a noble, noble avocation and profession, but i'm at a stage in my life where i want to stay a journalist and i think that there is honor in that and i think it's a form of public service as well, so no i'm not like you, i'm not looking for a job in the new cabinet.
sc: is that just another way of saying you didn't pass the vetting process?
tb: that's true as well.
sc: they found something dark in your past?
tb: well, homicide. i don't know why that, you know, why that would have anything to do with it.
i adore him. i love how well spoken and intelligent he is. i love that dad vibe about him, like i could go to him with any question and he'd have an answer. and i love that he has a good sense of humor. i watched him on conan once and he was so witty, but with his normal kind of deadpan delivery which just made it that much better.
yes i transcribed it. what about it?
