Tim Russert - Dead?

I was really shocked by the death of Tim Russert. When I turned on MSNBC to watch Hardball, and saw the headline at the bottom of the screen, I thought it was a mistake. That it was Tim Russert's father who had died, not Tim.

It was hard to watch the coverage on MSNBC because you could tell a lot of those reporters had been crying. I mean, the guy dropped dead at work. I can't imagine having to go on there air and eulogize a friend and co-worker who had just died only a few hours earlier. Really sad.
