Tim Russert 1950-2008

In my humble opinion Tim Russert was one of the best journalists this country has ever seen. His integrity, honesty, balance, justice and passion for America and our political system is unmatched. In every interview he ever did you never knew which side he was on, which is a true reflection of the journalism this country should have and needs. He only favored Buffalo and his love of his father and son.

He will be sorely missed…I cannot even begin to imagine what the political landscape will look like without him. I don’t want to turn on the election coverage and know that he won’t be there with his smile and his highly intelligent take on the game. 

So very sad…future journalists in universities and colleges all across our country need to yield to the example he set.
