for those who haven’t heard Tim Russert has died of a heart attack at 58

Hannity said he gave a big contribution to the Freedom
Concert but didn’t want his name acknowledged...
Howie just said Russert was recording voice overs for
Sunday’s show when he collapsed RIP

I saw it on FR, probably immediately after it showed up on Drudge. As someone posted, the delay in broadcast news reporting was probably that it had been leaked to Drudge before the family was notified.

I noticed Howie just did the bare bones announcement right before the break. But it occurs to me -- isn't Howie just about the same age?
