I'm shocked MSNBC would even cover this. It's 4 o'clock, they're supposed to be airing taped episodes of Keef Olbermann.

TIM RUSSERT DIES FROM APPARENT HEART ATTACK




By CHARLES HURT


June 13, 2008

Tim Russert, NBC journalist and political heavyweight host of "Meet the Press," has died after collapsing at NBC's Washington news bureau, a source said. He was 58 years old.

Russert, who rose from the inside world of politics where he was former New York Gov. Mario Cuomo's press secretary and one-time chief of staff to the late Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan, was able to successfully cross over to political journalism and rise to become one of its leading lights.

In his role as host of the seminal Sunday morning political program "Meet the Press" - which he took over in 1991 - he became renowned for his hard-nosed interviews where he frequently cornered some of Washington's cagiest political figures with tough questions.

THIS IS A DEVELOPING STORY. PLEASE REFRESH FOR UPDATES.

I don't care if it was a silk slip you were wearing I still wouldn't bite you, girlyboy.

It's a sad day. Jennings is dead, Brokaw's no longer on air and now the death of Tim Russert. Political TV will never be the same.

RIP Mr. Russert.

Tom Brokaw actaully made the initial annoucement of the sad news. Tim was great. I didn't know he was 58. Thought he was younger but 58 is still too young to go.

How long will it be before someone notes that Russert's name was mentioned as having been recently added to the Clinton's enemies list? Oh wait... I just did.
