"Tim Russert's physician says cholesterol plaque ruptured in an artery, causing
sudden coronary thrombosis. Russert had earlier been diagnosed with asymptomatic
coronary artery disease, but it was well-controlled with medication and
exercise, and he had performed well on a stress test in late April, Newman said.
An autopsy revealed that he also had an enlarged heart."
A sad reminder of how important a healthy diet and exercise can be.
