Charlie Brotman has been announcing presidential inaugural parades since 1957 when President Dwight D. Eisenhower was sworn in for a second term.
But this year, the 89-year-old announcer was overlooked for the gig with Trump.
According to the Washington Post, the offers, however, started coming in. In addition to helping the local NBC affiliate with it s inauguration coverage Brotman was asked to help announce at today’s women’s march on Washington.
“At first I said it sounded like they should have a female since it’s a women march,” Brotman told the Post. “And they said that they have all the women they want and at this particular scene I would add to it.”
