I'll update as and when information becomes available.
UPDATE: It's now breaking news at MSNBC: "BREAKING NEWS: NBC News 'Meet the Press' moderator Tim Russert dies." And at CNN. He was only 58.
My condolences to his family.
RIP Timmeh
UPDATE 2: If there is consciousness after death, I am, upon reflection, quite certain that Tim Russert is cursing that he died just in time for the Friday evening news hole—an observation I make with the sort of wry news junky humor that I suspect Russert appreciated.
UPDATE 3: Thanks to Petulant for providing the below video of Tom Brokaw's obit on MSNBC.
