However, eight days after his death is a bit early to joke about him IMO.

Is it too early to start writing sketches about him? Absolutely. This was a rerun. I find it silly that when someone people like dies, we need to hurry up and erase anything about them so that no one is offended. Russert himself would probably think that's silly.

In that case, I agree with you. I don't take that as the crew of Saturday Night Live making fun of Russert. With that context, it definitely seems a fitting tribute.

He was influential enough to be parodied on SNL. That parody is, in many ways, a tribute to his legacy. It is an honor to have a SNL skit written about you.

Not so sure if that's true nowadays, as far as having a new one written for you, given the show's drop in quality.
