Tim Russert, the host of “Meet the Press,” and NBC’s Washington bureau chief, has died. He was 58.
Mr. Russert was a towering figure in American journalism and moderated several debates during the recent presidential primary season.
Tom Brokaw, the former anchor of NBC Nightly News, came on the air at 3:39 p.m. and reported that Mr. Russert had collapsed and died early this afternoon while at work. He had just returned from Italy with his family.

15 Maybe his death will balance out the bias of the NBC network. |

2 "He had just returned from Italy with his family." I hope he and his family had a wonderful time and his family will have wonderful memories of their last days together. |

4 Keep being a callous azzhole an you'll win those votes back. This is a real shock. It would have been the most exciting election coverage of Tim Russert's career, too. Sorry he'll miss it. |

3 May he rest in peace. IMO Russert was one of the more likeable card-carrying members of the biased liberal media. Maybe it was his Buffalo, blue collar background that made him a bit less snobbish and more down to earth than many of his peers. |

1 Maybe it will. But for the next 24 hours let's put the politics aside and remember he was a human being with friends and family who are grieving. Rest in peace Mr. Russert. |
