two publications the washington post and variety report that linda bester says that tom brokaw twice forcibly tried to kiss her and once suggested that the two have an affair. she says brokaw once showed up at her new york hotel room where he grabbed her while trying to kiss her. she says a similar incident happened at her apartment in london years later. in a statement, brokaw says the following, quote. i met with linda vester on two occasions both at her request, 23 years ago because she wanted advice with respect to her career at nbc. the immediatings were brief, cordial and appropriate. and despite linda s allegations i made no romantic overtures towards her at that time or any other. brokaw has denied the allegations in an even more forceful language in an e-mail to friend and colleagues that has unfortunately been leaked. at the same time the washington post is reporting that 12 current or former nbc staffers say they were sexually harassed at the network but did not
