The Day Journalism lost an Original: Tim Russert dead at 58

Today I have very little to say because I am stunned by the sudden death of Tim Russert. Tim Russert is one of my favorite journalists; intelligent, unbiased, unrelenting but fair. My husband and I grew up with Ted Koppel, Peter Jennings, and Bill Moyers to name a few. We like our journalism the old fashioned way; doing your own homework, asking the tough questions and never taking sides. It is hard to see that these days. My Sundays with Meet the Press will never be the same and I absolutely cannot imagine the presidential election season without him.

Farewell Tim. We will miss you!
