"Tom Brokaw swims in lakes,
even in winter, occasionally in a bathing suit."
The Rest of the Time?
In a Nov. 14 New York Times profile of Tom Brokaw, reporter Bill Carter said that the outgoing anchor "has been known" to skinny-dip with his wife, Meredith, in a pond near his home in suburban New York. Following up last week, the New York Post said that Brokaw was "steamed" about the report and "wanted a correction, but how do you go about getting a correction on skinny-dipping?"
Thursday, Brokaw's spokeswoman Barbara Levin told USA TODAY: "Tom swims in lakes, even in the winter, but does not skinny-dip. Meredith only goes in water above 85 degrees, but also does not skinny-dip." Friday, however, Levin amended her answer: "Tom swims in lakes, even in winter, occasionally in a bathing suit."
