The News Hour tonight spent about 45 minutes of that hour speaking with Ifill's friends and colleagues. Several who fought back tears. She was an incredible journalist.

That is a shock and very sad. I remember her mostly from Washington Week and she was always a good-natured, gracious moderator who asked the right questions of her panel.

I was shocked, shocked. I didn't even know she was sick. Many other trite cliches, or is that redundant.

My condolences to her colleagues and family.

I too am shocked and saddened. I knew she was missing the last few weeks every time I clocked in but I thought I just happened to miss her. I had no idea she was ill.

I am so sorry.
