Former NBC News White House correspondent and “Weekend Today” anchor Campbell Brown was back at 30 Rock today. “I haven’t been up this early with make-up on, in a very long time,” said Brown to “Morning Joe’s” Mika Brzezinski. Brown was on talking about her New York Times op-ed a few weeks ago about Planned Parenthood, which continues to reverberate.

“I don’t approach this in an ideological way at all,” said Brown of her position. “I really view this as a practical matter, sort of, rethinking strategy.”

Following her appearance, Brown Tweeted, “Weird to be back on TV after so long!” Brown left her CNN show in May 2010.
