Tim Russert the long time host of Meet the Press has died. My heart goes out to Tim and his family. Extremely sad. Tim has been coming into or living rooms for over 2 decades. Whether you like him or not, he has been a staple of NBC and MSNBC. Tim died of an apparent heart attack.
From MSNBC:
Tim Russert, NBC News’ Washington bureau chief and the moderator of “Meet the Press,” died Friday after being stricken at the bureau, NBC News said Friday. He was 58.
Russert was recording voiceovers for Sunday’s “Meet the Press” broadcast when he collapsed, the network said.
He had recently returned from Italy, where his family was celebrating the graduation of Russert’s son, Luke, from Boston College. (more…)
This is sooo sad, he was so excited to see how this election would turn out.
Yep. You are correct. He was sweaty in a few shots in recent days.
I think that this is another reminder that tomorrow isn’t promised to any of us. We have to live each day like it was our last.
