NBC Anchor Tom Brokaw Accused of Sexual Harassment

HeadlineApr 27, 2018

Former NBC correspondent Linda Vester has accused longtime NBC anchor Tom Brokaw of groping her and trying to forcibly kiss her back in the early 1990s. She says that once at the Denver bureau office, Brokaw came up behind her, put his hand on her waist and then groped her. A second time, she says, Brokaw insisted on visiting her in her hotel room, and then tried repeatedly to forcibly kiss her. Brokaw has denied the accusations.
