1. yeah, Andrea Mitchell talking about how Tim went to her wedding, and how much it meant to her
I actually liked Tim a lot more than the other Washington bureau (David Gregory, Andrea Mitchell,etc) gang, but it's really heartbreaking watching everyone talk about this. You can tell that they are still in shock.

15. If he's not on yet, it's because he literally cannot be.
Just heartbreakingly sad.

9. Why did I start crying too ?
I think because I realize more and more how people mean so much to me:Family and Friends.

Yeah they are crying on air and you can hear what sounds like cellphones in the background chirping.

7. oh my god...
Andrea Mitchell is crying and talking about how Tim always called her "Mitch", and how she couldn't believe it when he started calling her that because that's what her dad always called her.

16. Meet the Press kept me informed about the American political scene
while I was living in Germany.It was one of the few English shows on TV that I could watch.Even though it was an hour it felt like I had a piece of home.I don't know why I feel like crying but I always looked forward to Sunday evenings back then so I could watch Meet The Press.

24. Me too...
This is so depressing. I just turned on the TV and saw that and my heart sank. Awful. I'm actually crying right now. I rewound my TV and Keith O looks to be on the verge of breaking up. This is too much. :cry:
