People in our industry revere Tim Russert, for obvious reasons. But I wonder if he was around now and being put in charge of MTP if he’d be what he was back then. I kind of doubt it. Dude was radically different. He pressed politicians in ways not done before. — PolitiTweet.org

Meanwhile the world is in 2020. Sure they’ve adopted the mechanics of the modern world, but they’ve not adapted to how the people and institutions they’re covering have changed. It’s like trying to use a Commodore 64 to build a newspaper website today. — PolitiTweet.org

I didn’t know him, so I’m not the guy to say. But even still, he clearly adapted to politicians’ bullshit. He found ways to expose them, like a filleted fish. Decades later those tactics aren’t working, and I have to believe he’d be more @ashleyfeinberg than @chucktodd — PolitiTweet.org
