- Update 6/16/08 - Jon Meacham over at Newsweek writes on Tim Russert the devout Roman Catholic.
- TV news is full of reminiscences of Tim Russert, by all accounts a most exemplary human being. He died yesterday, June 13, 2008, of a heart attack. Michelle Malkin packs a lot of links in her coverage. Howard Kurtz offers an excellent overview of his work as a broadcast journalist.
Update -I like Byron York's comment - "Even though he was at the absolute top of the Washington ziggurat, he had not a trace of elitism."
