His interview methods always favored Republicans. David Gregory lost his credibility when he danced with Karl Rove at a White House event during the Bush/Cheney fiasco. Russert and Gregory both exhibited a willingness to compromise their integrity in order to ingratiate themselves with the powerful. Fuck em both and fuck NBC for putting up with their bullshit.
