I loved listening to him. :cray:

DALLAS, Feb. 28 /PRNewswire/ -- The following is a statement from Jim Robinson, President of ABC Radio Networks, on the passing of Paul Harvey:

Paul Harvey was one of the most gifted and beloved broadcasters in our nation's history. As he delivered the news each day with his own unique style and commentary, his voice became a trusted friend in American households. His career in radio spanned more than seven decades, during which time countless millions of listeners were both informed and entertained by his "News & Comment" and "Rest of the Story" features. Even after the passing of his loving wife Angel in May 2008, Paul would not slip quietly into retirement as he continued to take the microphone and reach out to his audience. We will miss our dear friend tremendously and are grateful for the many years we were so fortunate to have known him. Our thoughts and prayers are now with his son Paul Jr. and the rest of the Harvey family.

b
Jim Robinson
President, ABC Radio Networks

It's a sad day. I've always enjoyed listening to him with my father. Him and Rush were always on growing up.

I remember listening to Paul Harvey during my lunch breaks when I worked for my dad as a young teenager. I remember thinking, "This work sucks".....what I'd give to go back to that time and be able to enjoy that experience again.

The rest of the story was great.

He could be very controversial and polarizing as well.But that was Paul Harvey!

R.I.P.

In an industry overrun by mindless blowhards, see Limbuagh, Rush and Olberman, Keith, Paul Harvey was a thoughtful, reasoned voice. His passing leaves a gaping hole in the American discourse.
