It’ll Be Worth Waiting For

In a little under 18 months, Aaron Brown is going to have a lot to say. You can tell he’s just itching to get it all out, but has to wait until his contract is up.

“In the day-to-day of putting on a daily newscast, it’s amazing how little time there is to think, and to reflect on the business, on decisions and why they’re made,” Brown tells Tim Cuprisin. “Because I have an employer, I can’t do as much of it as I would like, and I can’t always say everything I would like to. That’s OK. I get their position.” His contract has “another almost 18 months to run…”

> Also: “I’d really like to do an interview show,” Brown says, “somewhere between Larry (King) and Charlie Rose. It’s a little newsier than Larry and maybe a little less highbrow than Charlie, both of whom I think are very good. I just think I’d fit somewhere more in between. That program would get me really excited.”
