Gwen Ifill, host of PBS’ Washington Week and frequent Meet the Press guest, has a nice piece of remembrance on Tim Russert on The Root, citing her experience covering the Million Man March in 1995 and disagreements with Russert regarding the Don Imus controversy as examples of his honest intellectual curiosity, and willingness to book and brook dissenting opinion, even when it made him personally look bad. Confirming the obvious, the world of journalism lost a good one.
