I saw this on the news they just said the CPR could not revive him, I am guessing heart attack or something.

Yup it was a heart attack in the studio.

You'd more or less have to be into politics and in the US to really know who he is. He's a political analyst who hosted "Meet the Press" since 1991. It's a big loss for a lot of people who loved and/or admired him including the big body of fans who kept the show on the air for all these years.

Kind of sad to see him go. It's been years since I've watched meet the press, but someone recently described him as someone who was able to ask the tough questions of both sides.

He was pretty young, 58 isn't a very old age... Thats too bad, i don't really personally know who he was, but he seemed to be one of the best reporters...
