Tim Russert dead at 58
IronOxide:
Russert was always something of a hero of mine. I think since somewhere around the eighth grade, Meet the Press has been one of my favorite shows (and definitely my favorite Sunday poliitical show). I think that his untimely death may actually have significant impact on the political system. He was truly one of the few men who could actually get an answer out of a political figure. Who knows if somebody of his calibur will grow to fill the very real hole he leaves in our political system? I certainly hope so, but with the media the way it is, it seems like a losing game to try to push for unbiased journalism in the manner he did.

Aw man... I've always had a soft spot for Tim Russert. He reminded me of my favorite social studies teacher from high school. ...Nice way to make me start my day guys, thanks a lot.
Sox:
PQ4, I'm terribly sorry that we ruined your day with the news of a man's death. I'm very sorry that you had to hear about a devoted and supportive father, respected journalist and hero to thousands of people dying suddenly at the young age of 58. If there's anything we can do to cheer you up, let us know.
onewheelwizzard:
Tim Russert was a paragon of the journalism trade, especially by today's standards, and he will be sorely missed. We can only hope that someone with a fraction of his affinity for political journalism can step up to fill his place. Let's wish ourselves luck, I guess. Godspeed Mr. Russert.

If you could raise him from the dead, that would be ace.
