Well said,friend! I'm a 30 year old conservative and I loved Russert, because he was the last of the TRUE journalist who asked tough questions! RIP Tim.

[yoyosapazm]

If only MSNBC could put the same effort into the presidential election or the War as the put into do nothing Tim's death they would be unstoppable.

They spent over week blabbering about how good Tim was, yet the ignored the News.

What happened to news.

[BasDon24]

OBVIOUSLY YOU DO dumbass you watched it and made a comment. I hope people make the same comment when you die!!!!

[pmg716]

I always felt that Tim Russert was a fun-loving regular person behind the professional persona, whenever I watched MTP. The touching memorial service last week & countless tributes from those who knew him well is proof enough that Tim lived his life honestly. God took him because he needed another angel up in Heaven to watch over us! As the Billy Joel song goes, "Only the Good Die Young". Tim, may you rest in peace.

[SHRINA17]

He was a good man, respectful to others, he was wonderful to his friends, his family and lived clean....it's nice that he is getting all these wonderful tributes---he deserves it.

To the people who come on these videos and rip apart someone as lovely as Mr. Russert, it speaks volumes of what kind of idiot you are...you just need attention and it is desperate and sad!

[reneesouthsalem]

you're a very sad person who seriously needs some therapy. I feel very bad for you but I guess I shouldn't feel anything at all for you since you don't seem to care about anybody else. So sad.

[Sothonod]

Not being able to tell exactly what you think for so long, must have some affect on a person. Well it did...

It's Sunday it's Meet the Press without Mr Russert will never be the same. I'll for sure miss him.

[Justinafifan24]

what show did they interupt when this happened?

I was watching CNN, and Wolf Blitzer reported it.

[Julius121081]

NBC network was airing the second round of the US open golf event when they broke into it to announce this shocking news.

[densor05390]

MSNBC live...

[gamedude507]

On NBC they were airing the US Open Golf Championship, on CNBC I think they were airing closing bell. On MSNBC they were airing MSNBC Live

[Yankhadenough]

I liked & admired Tim Russert A LOT. He was lied about by Scooter Libby. Libby said that Russert 'outted' Valerie Plame to him on the phone . Pat Fitzgerald wanted Tim to testify. NBC's lawyers tried to stop it, based on confidentiality of sources 1st Amendment right that press industry uses. Eventually Tim had to testify & truth came out under oath. Russert testified that he did NOT DISCUSS & did NOT LEAK Valerie Plame to Libby in that conversation. Fitz used this to indict Libby for perjury!

[blinkfan77]

I respect the hell out of Brokaw for being able to do that. I can't imagine how painful that was. R.I.P. Tim Russert.

[T2TD]

yeah, me too, cause if i had to do it, id probably lose it live on the air. and whenever those nbc bells chime, i get a knot in my stomach, cause i know theres either something wrong, or something politically! but tim inspired me to be a journalist. one of the very few good ones!

[zapkvr]

From a person who lives in Australia let me say that there was no clearer voice of integrity in the U.S. media than Tim Russert. I watch MTP every single week and have done so fo many years. He will be missed more than I can say. My heart goes to his family. R.I.P. Tim

[fearthehawksndcavs24]

you can feel the shock in brokaw's voice

RIP

[allieree]

For time Russet's family, friends, and viewers, this Friday the 13th was a tragic day. Tim Russet always gave his interviewees a fair, informed, and respectful attitude. And he gave us, the viewers, enough information to make clear, intellegent choices for the people we vote into office. I will miss Tim. It's a sad day for those in America who appreciated the truth. My condolences to his friends and family.

[cyberdiva2u]

As a political news junkie and fan of 'Meet the Press', the world mourns a great loss in american journalism and the human spirit of mankind. You were always fair and focused on the facts. You will be greatly missed Tim Russert. Rest in Peace.

And for you, about 4 nanoseconds should suffice.
