Tim Russert - 28th Annual News & Documentary Emmy Awards



Uploaded by: emmys
Video Description:
Tim Russert, NBC News' Washington bureau chief and the moderator of "Meet the Press," died Friday, June 13th 2008 after suffering a heart attack at the bureau. He was 58.
He was "one of the premier political journalists and analysts of his time," Tom Brokaw, the former longtime anchor of "NBC Nightly News," said in announcing Russert's death Friday afternoon. Brian Williams, managing editor and anchor of "NBC Nightly News," called his death a "staggering, overpower
ing and sudden loss." "Meet the Press," which he began hosting in 1991, was considered an essential proving ground in the career of any national politician. Russert was the first presenter at the 28th Annual News & Documentary Emmy Awards on September 24, 2007.

Here Here Tim. He was one of the good ones. He asked the tough questions and wouldn't settle for political double talk. That will be a hard position to fill.

Tim Russert was one of the best if not THE best moderators for political discussions. I hope that his words that are recorded will be reviewed time and time again by other moderators as an example of how to achieve TRUTH in political interviews. Hold the politicians ACCOUNTABLE for what they say. Changing your mind is fine as long as you can explain it, rather than wave it off without any regard. We'll miss you Tim. God bless.

"if it's Sunday, it is Meet the Press". To think, we'll never him utter those famous words again. I gleaned an enormous amount of insight from Mr. Russert's Sunday morning program. Now, things are drastically different. Rest in Peace Mr. Russert, and thank you for everthing.

Thank you so much for everything Tim. You came across as straightforward and honest. It was so appreciated and so depended on because you were consistent with your reporting. It's a huge blow that you have left us in this time of concentrated political corruption and pure nonsense.

It could be that he simply didn't have an axe to grind (or didn't seem to anyway)...as in no hidden agenda...not trying to promote another's policy...like guys like Wolf Blitzer.

Another elitist? ... ( 1 month ago by egtower)
Another elitist? Sounds like another put down name like "polarizing",or my favorite "flip-flopper" Look these kinds of names come from the republican base. In 2006 the voters have spoken, these kinds of names don't work anymore and is embarrassing the party. Tim Russert was a honest and fair journalist and will be missed. Too bad the good die young.

Boy do we miss you Mr Russert, we are left with bias hacks who do little to hide their favor for one party or the other. True journalism has died with you. You will be missed by all those who just want to be informed.
So sad that you ... ( 1 month ago by littledogs1)
So sad that you would fell the need to put down a dead man, that takes real balls. What a big man you are, you probably think that was funny. Tim Russert was by far the greatest real news man of our life time, he was like a walking bank of information. He did his research, he did not ever use a telepromter on meet the press. You should be ashamed.
His death doesn't ... ( 1 month ago by procommenter)
His death doesn't grant him reverence. Russert was a news reader who ascribed to David Rockefeller's one-world govt. Russert, as do all "reporters" in the main-stream media, continually lied by omission. Russert's books, though highly-touted by the corporate media, were nothing more than walks down memory lane. You should get out more. Step into the light.

you are a real dick, I personaly liked his syle and I guess you are entitled to you oppinion, wrong as it may be. But he was always fair and balanced, unlike fox, and he treated all his guest with respect. He was by far the best informed man on politics. His death means something to his family and co-workers and to the public that watched him, just because you didn't like him does not mean you shoud disrespect him on a public forum. Maybe his kid is reading, ever think of that you twat.

he was a good guy, no bias', just reported the news and got the best and worst out of the people he interviewed. We need more truth reporters, less of the mess, so-called media AP we have now.
