Tim Russert dies

Legendary newsman and interviewer Tim Russert died today of an apparent heart attack while at work for NBC. He was 58 years old. Russert was a graduate of John Carroll University and also went to Cleveland State. Anyone who watched a debate moderated by Russert or one of his Meet the Press shows knows how well prepared he was. Tom Brokaw, on MSNBC this afternoon, called Russert a "tireless worker" who researched a lot and did his homework.

Tim, you will be missed. Below is an example of his work from Meet the Press.
