Brokaw out, McMahon in as Sacred Heart commencement speaker

FAIRFIELD — News Anchor Tom Brokaw is being replaced by Linda McMahon, a presidential cabinet member, as Sacred Heart University’s commencement speaker. The change was announced Friday in a memo to the university community by Sacred Heart President John Petillo. “This morning Tom Brokaw informed us of his decision to withdraw as our undergraduate commencement speaker. Given events in the news, Mr. Brokaw did not want to distract from the intended and most important focus of the day - our graduating students and their families,” Petillo wrote. Brokaw was accused Thursday of trying to forcibly kiss someone who was a correspondent for NBC in the 1990’s. The news anchor denies the allegations.
