I was shocked to learn that Tim Russert (58) died of heart attack on Fri. I used to watch his program when I was in the US and enjoyed his interviews. May his soul rest in peace. I didn’t know that he had coronary heart disease.

<p>The media fraternity of USA lies shocked with the news of the sudden death of Tim Russert, NBC’s beloved correspondent, the longest-serving moderator of “Meet The Press” and host of the self titled CNBC’s weekend interview show “Tim Russert”.</p>

Heart disease is the #1 killer in the US — 850 people every day. Imagine the progress that could have been made if a fraction of the cost of ‘war-on-terror’ was spent on research in preventing and treating heart disease.
