Not many here would know who that is. Thus the lack of replies.

Only 58, just came from his son's graduation.

Sad stuff.

Didn't always agree with his politics, but you never wish this on anyone.

I don't think he ever posed all shaved and oiled up in a thong in front of screaming gay men, so this isn't the right forum for it

(He was a Sunday morning political shit news-type tv host or whatever the hell ya call it where dems and reps gripe at each other)

People tend to die.

It's going to happen to everyone as far as I know.

Shocking news...  ::)

Tim Russert and R.W. Apple on Meet the Press. http://www.getbig.com/boards/index.php?topic=99857.0

What a great political education those men gave us.  May they both rest in peace.

They will be missed.  :'(

Not a surprise, he looked even healthier than John Ritter.

Always looked angry & too serious, i never confused that with being a good newsman.

He was one of my absolute favorites...one of the truly enjoyable broadcasters on TV over the past several years. 

Never once did I think, "Wow, I wish he would just shut up."  He may not have been as well-known as the network anchors, but he was clearly one of the best of our time.

Absolutely, brought it on his fat self.

As far as his announcing, he delivered zero insights. Another stock talking head despite whatever qualifications.
