Tim Russert dead at 58

(1/4) > >>

Tyler:
I am deeply saddened about the untimely death of one of the most beloved newscasters in the United States. Very rarely are there members of the media that garner a near universal respect of politicians and public alike, but he was one. As moderator of Meet the Press, I have watched Tim discuss the issues of the day every week for 15 years, avidly every day. America has lost a giant.

Lines:
Oh holy crap. He was only 58. We really did lose a giant. :-(

mberan42:
He will truly be missed. He was an incredible journalist.

Storm Rider:
Russert was part of a rare breed of journalist who never stooped to sensationalism or partisanship to get ratings. He was always informed and professional every Sunday for almost 20 years. It's a true shame and he will be missed.

RedLion:
I really couldn't believe this when I heard it

Russert was one of the few "old-style" journalists left. scratch that, he was one of the few journalists left, period, instead of an opinionated blowhard. He was tough, but he was always fair, and never had an agenda to push. I'll miss him and his commentary.
