Tim Russert Dead at 58
I've written hundreds of posts critiquing journalism, but have never had anything but respect for Tim Russerts' professionalism. He was what a journalist should be, and he will be missed.
Go with God, Mr. Russert.
Among the non-Fox media, Russert was the most... well... fair and balanced. He never tossed softballs at politicians and he always insisted on answers, bearing down if a politician acted squirrely.
For that reason alone, he will be missed, but listening to Hannity today and hearing the stories those who knew him told, I am sure he will be missed all the more by those whose lives he touched.
Godspeed, sir.

Posted by: Zelsdorf Ragshaft III at June 13, 2008 07:20 PMIs there anyone out there now who will question democrats? Even though Russert rarely asked any follow up questions at least he asked the question in the first place.
