No, I didn't know him. No, I didn't have a relationship with him. But I respected his work and thought he stood above many in his field. He asked tough questions, not always the tough question I wanted. His interview with David Duke stands out to me because he basically exposed the guy for what he was- a racist. After the interview Duke knew he'd been exposed and more importantly so did the voters in Louisiana. Tim exposed him not by heated quick "gotcha" questions. He broke Duke into pieces in two simple yet calm questions. "What are you running on if not on race?" Duke- "the economy." "What are three largest employers in LA?" Dukes face dropped and he had no answer, he simply didn't know. He'd been exposed as a fake and he knew, you could tell by the look on his face.

This was typical of Tim's style. No in your face, not let you finish your answer BS. Just you said this on that date so how can you explain your statements today?

We'd all know more about our politicians if all the pundits took a page out of his play book.

Say what you want. I'll miss him and I think his passing is a loss for us all.
