That is just the reality in today’s media environment. The rush to air and need to fill hours of time often leads to insensitive, intrusive, and self-serving coverage. The death of Tim Russert has really been the exception to that trend. Most of the coverage has been sincere and moving, you can really see the way his colleagues and competitors respected him. Here is a video interview of Tim’s son Luke done by Matt Lauer. It may be the best of the already excellent coverage of Russert’s death. You forget you’re watching a major news network, it’s just a good friend of the father trying to console the son. Even if you have a heart of stone or somehow don’t know who Tim Russert I think you will be hard pressed not to shed a few tears.
