Tim Russert dead at 58

Tim Russert

I learned today that Tim Russert died. This is sad news. I have loved his political coverage and of course sunday morning talk on Meet the Press. In such a critical year in politics, he will be missed in a new land of talking heads without facts. Mr. Russert always had the facts.

    I was so saddened when I heard this. Despite being one of the few legitimate and ethical journalists left, he also seemed like a good person. I wonder who will ask the tough questions now.

    I don’t know who will ask the questions. Who takes the lead role? Whoever it is, we will surely know in about a month as the election edges closer. Interim people until that point will probably fill his seat on meet the press.
