There was no one else like him. Mr. Russert's passing is a devastating loss to the coverage of American politics.Grizzlyjin said:We can all agree he was the best debate moderator on any network. Russert was The Guy. I can't even imagine watching Meet the Press now...And he seemed so excited about this new election.![]()
Yeah Brokaw is ready to cry. It's hard to watch.Diablos said:Watching MSNBC is so depressing. You can see the sadness right in their face, smiles and all.
CBS had been trying to court Matthews for their sunday morning show for a while , so not everyone in the media sees it that way I guess.StoOgE said:I'm really depressed right now, like more than I think I should be considering I never met him.
Maybe this is too soon, but no way does Mathews get Meet the Press.. the person most likely is probably David Gregory. He is the least "partisan" of the bunch and is a washington journalist vs a pundit.

Manly tears, men. Manly tears.
Russert was the icon of the media in politics. When he said something it was the truth. End of argument. Amazing sway he had, well deserved.Diablos said:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lklfIPBK4Zg
I remember PoliGAF going crazy when he said this... he definitely set the tone for the end of the primary season with this, I think. The networks talked about it constantly.
doubt it.Tom_Cody said:Wow. I'm really choked up. This is shocking. I'm going to avoid this thread for fear of GAF disrespecting his passing.
Rest in Peace.
