CNN? FOX? ABC? CBS? Sorry, I haven't watched NBC. I actually usually
watch my local news channel, BayNews9 and when I was on Maui I watched
another local channel, KITV - an ABC station.

Sorry, I'm not aware of who he is.

My excuse is the SF Bay Area has not had an NBC station for much
of the last decade.

He was the moderator on Meet The Press.

Oh, okay. Thanks, Wayne.

He was the moderator on Meet The Press.

On the old TV show "Homicide: Life on the Streets", one of the
characters was named Megan Russert. They decided later to have him
appear on the show as her cousin or something.

What! The first TV station we received in west-central Nevada was KRON

Yep. Here awhile ago KRON could not agree with NBC on
renewing the franchise and so it went non-network in 2002.

There is a fuzzy, distant NBC signal on channel 11 now.
Things have somewhat improved in the DTV era because the
11 signal is better in digital.

You should be extremely appologetic to be the first to rush forth to
blurt out that you never heard of Tim Russert... why didn't you just
stfu... a normal human would have at the very least taken a few
moments to look him up on the net and waited for some other folks to
post first so you'd get a clue... it's no wonder you shacked up with
the very first totally useless slut stalker came along... you earned
everything you deserve. You're an utter embarrassment to humanity.
It's difficult to feel any empathy for someone so utterly self
absorbed as you... you don't even express sympathy for another
unfortunate human being, makes one wonder if anything you claim is
true The parasitic florida duet, you deserve each other. Preying on
good folks sympathies makes you a fraud and a scammer.

Well, what do you watch on TV, the Cartoon channel, Nickelodeon,
American Idol... Tim Russert has appeared on every news channel and
has been interviewed by every major every talk show, many times. �Tim
Russert is as recognizable as Bill Clinton, moreso.

Funny. �As I read your post the TV was just saying he was considered
one of the 100 most influential people in the world. �He was a cool
dude. � �


And of the hundred he was probably up there in the top ten. From
everything I've observed and heard about Tim Russert he was a kind
soul. It must really be true that the good die young... I may live
here forever.

This is Sheldon's way of dealing with his frustration over the fact that he
wants to **** kili and he can't -- both because she is unavailable to him
and because he is impotent.

Keep it up, Sheldon, there will be HUNDREDS of people ****ing on your grave.

Tim Russert has appeared often on all networks, including local ones,
as the interviewee and interviewer... you must watch all those
networks on mind altering drugs. And even if you're unaware who he
is, and even if you do and don't like him, the man died, then say
nothing... you showed no respect.... but then a slut tramp who's proud
of shacking up with a useless parasitic dirtbag has no self respect.

RIP. I feel a great loss as will the political press here in America.

Blessings to his father. No man should ever have to bury his son.

I agree. He's one of very few journalists/interviewers on television
who is absolutely trustworthy. It's a very big loss.


What a shock. He was one of the good guys. He certainly wasn't one of
the Pretty Boy TV personalities, but a careful, skilled interviewer.

He was so well aware of all current politics and the international
ramifications of U.S. policy. Election night won't be the same without
him, not to mention the months leading up to the election.

It was too soon and he will be sorely missed.

Read the biography he wrote of his dad. There was so much love and

It might not have been a heart attack -- pulmonary
embolism has also been mentioned as a possible cause.

Note that he had just returned from Italy the
previous day. Sitting in one place on a long
plane flight can lead to formation of a blood
clot in the legs. I'd just about bet that he
acquired a blood clot during the flight, and
died of a pulmonary embolism.

It was in fact a heard attack. He had a recent stress test with no ill
effects. He had coronary artery disease and a piece of plaque broke off and
blocked one of the main arteries to the heart then a blood clot formed.

This is commonly refwered to as a widow maker. It is almost always
asymptomatic until you drop! Then you're dead!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Widow_maker

A widow maker is a nickname used to describe a highly stenotic left main
coronary artery or proximal left anterior descending coronary artery of the
heart. This term is used because if the artery gets completely occluded it
will cause a massive heart attack that will likely lead to death.

I am amazed. Have any of you heard of "Meet the Press"? It is the longest
running show on television. Carried by NBC then rebroadcast by MSNBC. The
show started in 1947. Tim took over the show in 1991 and has been a fixture
on the political scene since then.
