Hours earlier, the network had reported that Brokaw felt "light-headed" on the set of the news-talk program "Morning Joe," which originated this week from Charlotte, where the Democratic National Convention is taking place.
"Out of an abundance of caution," the network said, Brokaw was taken to the hospital for examination.
