Liz Glover: Last question sir. What do you think about the prospective merger of NBC with Comcast?
Tom Brokaw: Well I…you know, let's wait and see what happens before I comment on it. But I know the people at Comcast. I think they're really responsible and serious. They've got an enormous amount of integrity.
