A Journalism Legend

Tim Russert

1950-2008

Yesterday Tim Russert, the longtime host of Meet the Press, suddenly died of a heart attack at the age of 58. Russert is mostly known for his Sunday morning show, but is also NBC News chief correspondent. He has surely made a name for himself and has influenced the way many of us look at politics.

It is extremely unfortunate that Russert had to pass at the moment he did, while not being able to cover the best presidential election ever. He would have loved it.

Today we honor his life, his service, and his passion of politics. May God Bless Tim Russert, and our prayers go out to his family and friends.
