She died. I was worried when she wasn’t on air on election night.
She was just 61. Her voice will be missed. 
Man, this year just sucks…
Damn, sorry about that. Thanks for the updated link.
Wow. Surprising and way too soon. Thanks Ms. Ifill.
Apparently she was fighting cancer, according to the npr story. No mention of what kind, just that it won.
Shitballs. Fuck this year. It was endometrial cancer.
Whaaaat??
Damn.
One of the best. Watch News Hour every night. This is awful news.
RIP, Gwen Ifill.
Fuck cancer and 2016.
Fuck you, 2016.
:mad:
Damn, I will miss her from both the News Hour and Washington Week.
Thankya, Ms. Ifill.
Dammit.
Saw replacements hosting Washington Week for the last several programs but never suspected. You were the best, Ms. Ifill.
They mentioned she was taking election week off to deal with medical issues, but nothing like this! I liked her esp because we go by the same first name.
The tribute on NH has got me tearing up. Obviously her colleagues had high regard for her. I will miss her.
She will be seriously missed, especially in the current political climate. RIP.
And yeah, fuck 2016 and cancer.
That was a surprise to me too.
RIP, Gwen.
She was a treasure. Very sad news.
