Tim Russert was particularly prolific during this election season. How will things be different without him over the next few months?
Well, it'll go on. It won't be as rich, it'll take a while for it to seem as rich as it might have been. Moving on from him will be a Herculean task.

    Russert was just another mouthpiece for the administration and the status quo. If not then he was a willing dupe. You don't get rich telling the hard truth, it's not something people want to buy nor will the government allow you to sell.

    Since Tim Russert passed away, I haven't watched any political reporting. I don't know where to turn to. Sad.

    No he wasn't. It's telling that nutjobs on both the right and left both think he was biased for the other side. That's a pretty sure indication that he was fair.
