I have no idea who he is! I got an e-mail from my local news that he passed
away, but I've never seen him in my life. I know he was an NBC guy, but
that's it. I don't watch NBC.

It might not have been a heart attack -- pulmonary
embolism has also been mentioned as a possible cause.

Note that he had just returned from Italy the
previous day. Sitting in one place on a long
plane flight can lead to formation of a blood
clot in the legs. I'd just about bet that he
acquired a blood clot during the flight, and
died of a pulmonary embolism.

Um, a pulmonary embolism is a heart attack. Do you know what
pulmonary means, obviously not.

Well, I hope he had a good trip, and it was good that he saw his son
graduate. For the past 2 years, we have been steady watchers of Meet
The Press. One of the things I liked about Tim was if a guest evaded
his question, he would keep on them until he got a satisfactory
answer.

Well, what do you watch on TV, the Cartoon channel, Nickelodeon,
American Idol... Tim Russert has appeared on every news channel and
has been interviewed by every major every talk show, many times. Tim
Russert is as recognizable as Bill Clinton, moreso.

Funny. As I read your post the TV was just saying he was considered
one of the 100 most influential people in the world. He was a cool
dude.

No Sheldon, a PE isn't a heart attack. It can ultimately cause one (yet
not a given) and often mimics one, but it isn't one itself. The blood
clot travels to the lungs from the venous return and impedes blood and
gas exchange there.

I watch local news, McNeil-Lehreh (or whatever it's called
now) and BBC news. I guess I do not watch the sort of network
news programming that included Russert, or the few times
I have I didn't take the trouble to identify him.

It now appears to have been a coronary embolism.

Sweetheart, there are other stations than NBC. Have you heard of them?
CNN? FOX? ABC? CBS? Sorry, I haven't watched NBC. I actually usually
watch my local news channel, BayNews9 and when I was on Maui I watched
another local channel, KITV - an ABC station.

Sorry, I'm not aware of who he is.

So that type of embolism could have been the consequence
of deep-vein thrombosis caused by the plane flight, true?

Possibly a result of the long flight from Rome the night before.

My excuse is the SF Bay Area has not had an NBC station for much
of the last decade.

On the old TV show "Homicide: Life on the Streets", one of the
characters was named Megan Russert. They decided later to have him
appear on the show as her cousin or something.

Yep. Here awhile ago KRON could not agree with NBC on
renewing the franchise and so it went non-network in 2002.

There is a fuzzy, distant NBC signal on channel 11 now.
Things have somewhat improved in the DTV era because the
11 signal is better in digital.

You should be extremely appologetic to be the first to rush forth to
blurt out that you never heard of Tim Russert... why didn't you just
stfu... a normal human would have at the very least taken a few
moments to look him up on the net and waited for some other folks to
post first so you'd get a clue... it's no wonder you shacked up with
the very first totally useless slut stalker came along... you earned
everything you deserve. You're an utter embarrassment to humanity.
It's difficult to feel any empathy for someone so utterly self
absorbed as you... you don't even express sympathy for another
unfortunate human being, makes one wonder if anything you claim is
true The parasitic florida duet, you deserve each other. Preying on
good folks sympathies makes you a fraud and a scammer.

And of the hundred he was probably up there in the top ten. From
everything I've observed and heard about Tim Russert he was a kind
soul. It must really be true that the good die young... I may live
here forever.

This is Sheldon's way of dealing with his frustration over the fact that he
wants to **** kili and he can't -- both because she is unavailable to him
and because he is impotent.

Keep it up, Sheldon, there will be HUNDREDS of people ****ing on your grave.

Tim Russert has appeared often on all networks, including local ones,
as the interviewee and interviewer... you must watch all those
networks on mind altering drugs. And even if you're unaware who he
is, and even if you do and don't like him, the man died, then say
nothing... you showed no respect.... but then a slut tramp who's proud
of shacking up with a useless parasitic dirtbag has no self respect.

What a shock. He was one of the good guys. He certainly wasn't one of
the Pretty Boy TV personalities, but a careful, skilled interviewer.

He was so well aware of all current politics and the international
ramifications of U.S. policy. Election night won't be the same without
him, not to mention the months leading up to the election.

It was too soon and he will be sorely missed.

It was in fact a heard attack. He had a recent stress test with no ill
effects. He had coronary artery disease and a piece of plaque broke off and
blocked one of the main arteries to the heart then a blood clot formed.

This is commonly refwered to as a widow maker. It is almost always
asymptomatic until you drop! Then you're dead!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Widow_maker

A widow maker is a nickname used to describe a highly stenotic left main
coronary artery or proximal left anterior descending coronary artery of the
heart. This term is used because if the artery gets completely occluded it
will cause a massive heart attack that will likely lead to death.

I am amazed. Have any of you heard of "Meet the Press"? It is the longest
running show on television. Carried by NBC then rebroadcast by MSNBC. The
show started in 1947. Tim took over the show in 1991 and has been a fixture
on the political scene since then.

True. It killed my brother a few years ago after flying from San Diego to
Wash DC to Morocco. He died in his hotel room shortly after dinner. If you
are on a long flight, get up and walk around and move your legs. Some of
the airline magazines have exercises you can do in your seat.

Once again, thanks, Sheldon. Can you be any more harsh? Perhaps I've lived
on a rock in the middle of the Pacific for many years and haven't had access
to "modern" news.

Most of the time I've been here in FL, I haven't even had cable TV - it's
only been in the past couple of years. And, honey, I really wish you
wouldn't cut my husband down. He takes me to every doctor's appt. and, huh,
and knowing of your judging a woman by her boobs - since I only have one
left - my husband's still here. Would you be?

Kili, sweetie, I don't know why you don't block his posts. I can't stand
the way he insults and belittles people, especially people I like. You
wrote a good reply, but he didn't deserve any reply at all. He's nothing
but slime.

Luv ya!

tbt, I wasn't immediately familiar with the name, but when I saw his
picture, I realized I had seem him a lot of times. If you look at the
photo, you'll know who he is.

Kili,

Sheldon suffers from a severe case of C-RE ( http://tinyurl.com/6nydc9 ).
Don't let this self-absorbed, attention-starved, walking pile of fecal
matter get under your skin. If he had to walk a mile in your shoes, he'd
curl up in a ball and start crying for his mommy because he's not man enough
to handle any of the real challenges in life. Instead he hides behind a
computer screen lashing out at others at will in an attempt to justify his
own miserable existence.

Do yourself a favor and killfile the creep as have I. The only time that I
know he's still kicking is when someone like yourself responds to one of his
missives.

I'd settle for simply dancing on it... Sooner versus later.

Very seldomly, a television was randomly turned on when
"Meet the Press" or "Crossfire" or similar was starting
but it did not remain on for very long.

Really, I'd rather get my news from print sources. I sometimes
watch local TV news though, because the local print media
is too spotty.

There are many famous people in the media world with whom
I am utterly unfamiliar.

Cripes. I am really sorry to hear this happened to your
brother.

Isn't that something? Wow! Apparently he died while getting ready
for Meet the Press.
