Tom Brokaw's farewell from NBC Nightly News - December 1, 2004

Tom Brokaw signed off from NBC Nightly News on December 1, 2004 and turned over the reins to Brian Williams. This is a VHS aircheck from KNBC-TV Los Angeles I recorded with excerpts. Brokaw announced his full retirement from 55 years at NBC News on January 22, 2021.

This man was on our TV sets through the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, 00, 10, and 20s. A living time capsule of information and knowledge. Thanks for your years of dedicated service Tom. Hope you're enjoying your retirement

Linda Vester will never have this kind of tribute.

I also love Tom Brokaw very much. In my deepest sympathy of my heart and my brain.

Fun that George Lewis worked with Brokaw at the network after KNBC.

NBCUniversal owned KNBC since 2004.
