I need context. What did he say? And please tell me there's a copy.

He went on a bit of a monologue about how important the press is and that they’ve been attacked lately by people and “politicians” and in the most direct comment towards Trump said that they are not “the enemy of the people”.

I fucking wept like a baby.

He got a shoutout and quick montage on national ABC from David Muir as well!

I moved from Philly to Boston when I was 26. Today, as a 42 year old man, I tuned in to watch Jim’s last broadcast and got choked up like I knew I would. Truly a special man.

42 year old who moved from Philly to New Haven in 2019. I remember watching Jim with my grandfather as a kid. Thank goodness for the internet, I got to see the farewell.

Those David Auto commercials might be the most local commercials I've ever seen.

If only the Jefferson patients turned to the camera and said, "And we watched Jim on Action News after my surgery."

I'm originally from Tennessee, only been here since 2011 and somehow this guy feels like home.

Legend! I cried. I've been watching him since he started here. Parents and grandparents always watched Action News so I always watched it. The man is a legend and the nostalgia runs deep. Much love to Jim.and his magnificent mustache! ❤️
