Meet the Meet the Press Man

Russert.jpg The tables are turning on Tim Russert tonight at the JFK Library. He'll be chatting with NPR's Linda Wertheimer about his twenty years of broadcast journalism. Since taking over Meet the Press at the end of 1991, Russert has interviewed anyone that's anyone in today's political world, and we're hoping he'll share some dirty little secrets tonight. The Sunday morning interview show has been around 57 years, longer than any program in the history of television, but the all-knowing Irishman has turned it into a nail-biting experience for some guests. In 2003, Slate put together a Meet the Press user's guide for the presidential candidates. Then last May, a press aid found out what happens when you cross The Host. He may be tough on camera, but we hear he's a great dad to his BC-enrolled son.

Russert used to work for my Aunt in Buffalo, at her law firm.
