WASHINGTON, June 13 (Reuters) – Tim Russert, the host of NBC’s “Meet the Press” and the American network’s Washington bureau chief, died on Friday of a heart attack, NBC said. He was 58.
The MSNBC cable network interrupted its programming for a special report by former anchorman Tom Brokaw who said Russert collapsed and died at work in NBC’s Washington bureau after returning from a trip to Italy with his family.
“This news division will not be the same without his strong, clear voice,” Brokaw said. He called Russert a beloved colleague and said his late colleague loved the 2008 political campaign, working to the point of exhaustion week after week.
