RipTimRussert

"On Friday, June 13, NBC Washington Bureau Chief Tim Russert died. Russert, 58, had hosted "Meet the Press" since December 1991 and was with NBC News since 1984. In 2008, Time Magazine named him one of the 100 most influential people in the world." Quote from Newsvine.com Tim Russert was one of my favorite newsmen of this generation. A journalist with class, yet humble as his early years had shaped him to be. Hard-hitting but fair in asking the tough questions in an interview.

You are missed. The Last Show ~ ht...
