It is easy to write long rants about the stupidity of American television news. Not now, though. My favorite political reporter died today. In fact, Meet the Press has been the only political news program that I could watch without getting annoyed. Tim Russert’s interviews were incisive and civil. He also had an amazing depth of knowledge and a fantastic ability to tell a story. Time ranked him recently as one of the world’s 100 most influential people.
