Russert deserved better prominence

How incredibly horrible it was for me to unfold my paper Saturday morning to see that Mr. R. "I haven't-accomplished-anything-real-in-life" Kelly had been given precedence on the front page over a true political genius, Tim Russert.

Shame on the Herald for giving the loss of someone who made a true contribution to this country, or even world, and touched so many lives, nothing more than a dismal little corner of your front page.

I might as well have been reading the "Back Page."
