Remembering Tim

Tim Russert was one of the best TV broadcasters is not the best. He showed his total devotion to the task at hand by always ensuring that all the research was ready and in queue for those surprise questions that he snared his unsuspecting guest with, just as they started patting themselves on the back. It has been a year now since his passing and I wish to pay this Tribute to Tim Russert as I remember the irreplaceable lost to TV, his family and friends, the world and me.

 

Remembering Tim

 

Remorsefulness I could feel no more

Everything is different than before

My thoughts now are the wonderful memories

Episodes when he interviewed celebrities

Meet the Press was a great addition to my Sundays

Dialogs well research and presented in fresh ways

Ever political leader invited for a chat

Respectfully grilled to discern fiction from fact

I think I learnt more from these interviews

No twisted focus and distortions as in the news

Got the fact straight once and for all listening

Tim’s Christian nature brought an unusual christening

I felt renewed interpretation when I listened to him

Meet the Press continues and in a way so does Tim

 

In Loving Memory of Tim Russert
