BRIAN WILLIAMS DESCRIBES TRAGIC LOSS OF TIM RUSSERT
Tim Russert, who pointedly but politely questioned hundreds of the powerful and influential as moderator of NBC’s “Meet the Press,” died suddenly Friday while at work in Washington. In addition to his weekly program, Russert appeared on the network’s other news shows, was moderator for numerous political debates and wrote two best-selling books. The network Web site at first said that Russert died of a heart attack, but spokeswoman Jenny Tartikoff later said, “We do not know the cause yet.”
