What a guy. I'd never pass up his broadcast, and would sit in the car to hear it though if I had arrived at a destination. He really set a new standard for broadcasting.

Your fairness is undeserved. We don’t come close to matching the level of murderous hatred from the extreme left... even the worst among us on their worst day. The Tony Snow threads prove that beyond any doubt.

“Probably my favorite radio newsman ever.”

He WAS my favorite. I always came away from his broadcast enlightened and uplifted. I cannot say that of ANY other personality in any of the Media.

So very sorry for your loss.

sigh.

An American Legend .......A family tradition for us. I remember sitting at my grandparents dinner table and all things came to a stop when Paul Harvey came on.

Every station around me stopped carrying him a couple years ago. I used to rush to get out of work by 5:30 so I could hear “Rest of the Story.” I wonder if there’s a site out there where you can download them. Would be nice to have a bunch of them to podcast and then listen to the randomly. I liked his morning news as well.
