Regarding all the coverage of the death of Tim Russert: I have not heard a word from Chris Matthews!?

Question

Where is Chris Matthews? Is he on some island somewhere? He has not made a statement live or quoted by the others covering this event.

Answer 1

what is your point

All over the news channels, radio and newspapers.

Answer 2

I'm pretty sure he was on live with Andrea Mitchell on Friday right after the death occurred.  On MSNBC that is.

Answer 3

I first heard him on the phone from the airplane he was flying back to the USA on from Europe --it was soon after the announcement.  He probably had a film crew with him because he was filmed live when he landed and was crushed--you could tell it was for real.  He said, being in Europe & hearing the news there made it seem unreal for him.  I've not heard nor seen anything of him since but apparently he was a friend as well as a colleague. He appeared to be in shock as everyone else interviewed  on TV.  I think it was the suddeness, his age & that no one knew he had a heart condition that  makes it all the more terrible for people to accept.

Answer 4

He was on this morning right after meet the press tribute.  It did say it was recorded earlier this weekend.  I don't understand your question.  Was there some rif between Russert and Mathews ?

Answer 5

of course this morning at 11 am he diedcated the entire show to him
