Tom Brokaw disses Alabama during Ole Miss commencement speech
Tom Brokaw, best known as the anchor and managing editor of NBC Nightly News from 1982-2004, delivered the commencement speech at Ole Miss’ graduation this morning and took the opportunity to make fun of SEC rival Alabama.
Though he’s a University of South Dakota alumnus, he couldn’t miss out on a chance to get a laugh or two from the crowd with this lighthearted joke:
"I'm glad I'm speaking at Ole Miss. If I were speaking at Alabama I would have to use smaller words & shorter sentences." –@tombrokaw #WAOM
