He took great offense at people who didn't, treated the show lightly and had great respect for those who even though they tripped up gave a sense a preparation.Still, while this show was a deemed a celebration of Russert's life and work it was clear that the mourning period is not over.The flag outside the studios in Washington flew at half staff and his coworkers and colleagues shared hugs as they filtered in and offered words of praise as they left.SOT Elanor CliftThat set is weird without Tim.SOT Pat Buchanan He was a great guy he had an infectious sense of humor he loved the work he was doingSOT BrokawHe raised the level of political dialogue in this country. He made the candidates better made journalists better.

He was an outstanding personality. America lost one of its best journalists. We'll always remember him when we watch meet the press on NBC.

How can some of you be so full of shit?!? Tim Russert is dead! You either speak good things about a dead person... or you shut the **** up!!!He happens to be a good guy, who loved his dad, his son, and was so proud of his Buffalo up-bringing, and his connection to Upstate NY.Even though I never met him, I could feel from his presence in front of the cam that he was a cool guy, believing in his family, and the job he was doing.Let your hatred go to hell, and remember him as a good man!

He was a an intelligent guy, down to earth and a great father to his only son. People loved this man, who cares if you don't.

Tim would have been very disappointed that as you were trying to pay him a dear compliment that you had to add hatred to your message. Your comment is very sad.

If only Olbermann could have pulled higher ad rates, Tim wouldnt have had to work so hard.

Russert was more important than those 10000 chinese people who died in a flood. they all look the same :-/ Russert was one of the 100 most influential people in the world. That's why it's a big deal. The chinese kill their own children if it's not a boy, they have reproduction limits, they don't care about their own lives...why shoudld we. They will continue to reproduce like rats, don't worry. Point being, there will only ever be ONE Tim Russert.

I think it is so so sad that Oldermanns inability to get ratings on MSNBC drove poor Tim Russert to death

Does anyone remember when Meet The Press was hosted by Ned Brooks?
