indy4 155 Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 I can't say I watched "Meet the Press" very often, but 58 is much too early. RIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hitch 57 Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 I too enjoyed Mr Russert's program. A larger than life character. A sad day for American media and journalism. The friday the 13th curse has struck again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hitch 57 Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Just watched the NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams....very poignant. Sad to think his dad is still alive and well. It's now being reported on Fox that it could have been a clot in the leg that killed him as he had just returned from a long flight back from Italy - DVT (Deep Vein Trombosis)...we won't know further until an autopsy's been done.

John Crichton 4 Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 God. This is shocking and horrible. Everyone who knows me well knows how much politics is a big part of my life. Russert and I may have been on opposite sides where he came from, but unlike many former operatives turned journalists (on both sides) I almost always found him eminately fair and he seemed to almost take delight at asking tough, fair question to both sides. His knowledge, passion, and style will be greatly missed.Man, I just can't take this in.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red 75 Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Man, this is harsh. 58 is no age to die. RIP, sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
