"MEET THE PRESS" REMEMBERS TIM RUSSERT
Sunday, June 15, 2008
Tim Russert's chair was empty on "Meet the Press" this morning. All of his closest colleagues and friends gathered on the set to remember the host just two days after his death. Russert died of a heart attack on Friday at just 58 years old.
Tom Brokaw led the conversation and was joined by Maria Shriver, Mary Matalin and James Carville among others. All of them, seated in front of the show's table, which was left vacant. For an hour, they spoke about and showed clips Russert's greatest interviews.
Russert died just two days before Father's Day. He had written two books about his relationship with his own father and always expressed his love for his son, who recently graduated from college in Boston. The show ended appropriately with a message from Russert where he sent Father's Day greetings to all, including his dad and his son.
