Paul Harvey Aurandt--known to his legions of devoted "News and Comment" and "The Rest of the Story" listeners on more than 600 U.S. radio stations as simply Paul Harvey--had his first "good day" on Sept. 4, 1918, two years before this nation's first licensed commercial radio station hit the air. The newly minted nonagenarian has been delivering his own unique take on news in his own unique style based out of Chicago for 57 years now. Although his workload has beed reduced of late because of health issues and the death earlier this year of longtime wife/partner Lynne "Angel" Harvey,...

RIVER FOREST, Ill. — The wife of radio legend Paul Harvey, Lynne Cooper Harvey died at her Illinois home Saturday morning after a year-long battle with leukemia, according to a statement from Harvey's office. The woman he called "Angel" was 92. Lynne developed and edited her husband's best-known feature "The Rest of the Story." A director, writer and editor, and the producer of her husband's radio program, she was the first producer ever inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame. Among her brainchilds were including news features within hard-news broadcasts, and the humorous "kicker," which became a Paul Harvey trademark....

The former Massachusetts Governor and recent Republican presidential candidate will "bring his unique views as both a politician and business leader to the microphone" - and will be getting up extra early, to handle that first Paul Harvey show, as well as the "midday visit." ABC Radio Networks says former KVIL/KLUV, Dallas personality Ron Chapman will still handle the bulk of the fill-ins for Paul Harvey - whom it says is due for cataract surgery, after recovering from pneumonia. Harvey's an amazing 89 years old, and is now scheduled to return to his usual Chicago-based microphone on Friday, April 25.

"I can't take it anymore. If one more person sends me that e-mail about Hillary and the Black Panthers, I'll have to be dragged away screaming in a straitjacket." --------------------------------- "The story is no hoax, though. Its basic elements can be found in respected Hillary biographies and exposes such as Barbara Olson's "Hell to Pay," David Brock's "The Seduction of Hillary Rodham," Joyce Milton's "The First Partner" and Carl Limbacher's "Hillary's Scheme."" ---------------------------------- "At Yale, Hillary helped edit the Yale Review of Law and Social Action – a left-wing journal which promoted cop-killing and featured cartoons of pig-faced police."

I have been touting Fred Thompson since January 2007, and it has been several months since I have written an article about him. Among other things, I have noted that Thompson antagonizes no one and would unite the Republican Party – no one really had anything bad to say about him in the New Hampshire debates, and the closest anyone came was John McCain, a close friend of Thompson. I have noted that Fred got the gay marriage issue precisely right – a constitutional amendment which does not require states to give full faith and credit to gay marriages is...

The decision comes amid a bevy of media stories scrutinizing his past, including three bankruptcies, a short stint in jail and 1996 Federal Trade Commission charges of false advertising in a prior business. Employees of the identity theft-prevention firm were notified Monday of Maynard's resignation. LifeLock officials said Maynard wanted to spend more time with his family and the constant barrage of media inquiries "had become a major addition to his already heavy work load, as well as a distraction for the company."

Let's just say that for the Fort Worth school district, it wasn't a good day.Paul Harvey, the nationally syndicated radio newsman known for his twice-daily show, News and Comment, mentioned the district Friday in his lunchtime program in an item about a small protest outside the administration building.About a dozen students, parents and supporters had picketed the building Thursday in protest of a board decision this week. The board upheld a district policy prohibiting 617 students who failed one or more parts of the TAKS exit-level exam from participating in graduation ceremonies.Harvey had received a photo of the protest."Several students...

My wife was listening to Paul Harvey at lunch and thought she heard him talking of a huge cave discovered in Illinois that contained a fossilized rain forest and perfectly preserved fossils of several extinct creatures.

Has any one made a map, or done any tracking, of cities/towns the cell phones are being purchased? or of where the suspects are being picked up? Thanks.

A radical Hispanic group is promoting a boycott of the Walt Disney Company because, contends the Mexica Movement, the entertainment giant "has made a habit of hiring talk show hosts who spread the Minutemen white supremacist racist agenda." The boycott announcement specifically cites radio legend and Presidential Medal of Freedom winner Paul Harvey, as well as popular talker Doug McIntyre. Both Harvey and McIntyre are nationally syndicated by ABC, which is owned by Disney. McIntyre was instrumental in exposing a taxpayer-funded Los Angeles school backed by radical groups that lay claim to the Southwestern U.S. As WND reported, the principal...

Today's media and tomorrow's will showcase long-faced scholars who dare not let you run out of things to worry about as they herald the onset of a potentially cataclysmic menace called "global warming." And if you haven't heard, you will, this weekend, that our fragile planet is overheating. Congress knew no more about the future than you do, so the congress designated our national academy of sciences to tell them what they should tell us about global warming, and I have seen their report and here it comes. Your planet is hotter than it has been in 400 years. Maybe...

Recently, on Paul Harvey News he read an e-mail from a listener. She recommended the following- “Dig a moat along the US/Mexico border. Use the dirt from the digging to raise and reinforce the levee system in New Orleans. Then fill the moat with alligators from Florida. Any other problems you need me to solve?”

t's pretty clear that ABC Radio is preparing former Senator Fred Thompson to replace radio legend Paul Harvey. The 87-year-old Harvey has made no announcement about retiring, but financial analysts have complained that ABC has not made adequate plans for his departure. On Friday, ABC News Radio, America's largest commercial radio news organization, officially named former Senator Fred Thompson to the position of Special Program Host and Senior Analyst beginning in the Spring of 2006. Thompson, a Republican from Tennessee, well-known for his acting roles on television's Law & Order, will be based from ABC News Radio's Washington, D.C. bureau....

Friday Morning recording 11 Feb 06 Russia's Vladimir Putin, bold and brave is plunging into the Middle East peace process inviting one on one talks with Hamas. Says no way can he do worse than the other peace mediators who seem paralyzed. Washington considers Hamas a terrorist organization and won't talk to them at all. Putin figures he can't do worse than that

The man to whom I'm going to introduce you was not a scrooge, he was a kind decent, mostly good man. Generous to his family, upright in his dealings with other men. But he just didn't believe all that incarnation stuff which the churches proclaim at Christmas Time. It just didn't make sense and he was too honest to pretend otherwise. He just couldn't swallow the Jesus Story, about God coming to Earth as a man. "I'm truly sorry to distress you," he told his wife, "but I'm not going with you to church this Christmas Eve." He said he'd...

Paul Harvey and Prayer Paul Harvey says: I don't believe in Santa Claus, but I'm not going to sue somebody for singing a Ho-Ho-Ho song in December. I don't agree with Darwin, but I didn't go out and hire a lawyer when my high school teacher taught his theory of evolution. Life, liberty or your pursuit of happiness will not be endangered because someone says a 30-second prayer before a football game. So what's the big deal? It's not like somebody is up there reading the entire book of Acts. They're just talking to a God they believe in and...

An Open Letter to Paul Harvey Dear Mr. Harvey, If a doctor amputated a healthy leg instead of a damaged one should he have to compensate the patient or should he be able to avoid any liability by saying “I made a mistake”? What if an oil tanker had an accident and spilled a large quantity of oil. Should the owner of the tanker have to pay for cleanup and be able to avoid it by saying “I just made a mistake”? If you run a red light and hurt someone should you be able to avoid paying for the...

Did anyone hear the end of Paul Harvey's radio show today? He quoted Winston Churchill who said, after the bombing of Pearl Harbor that Amercans "did not get where they were by being made of sugar candy". He tied that in with what happened on 9/11, and said "I've been choking on this one for weeks, and I'd like to get it out".

Coming to work today, I was listening to Paul Harvey when I heard him say; "Conservatives compete; Liberals cooperate." Now I trust Paul Harvey, so I think he was using a quote, or being sarcastic, but as I tried to consider what that meant, I just became more and more confused. Conservatives compete, Liberals cooperate...... Man, that seems so wrong on so many levels.

Anyone else notice the 15 seconds or so of dead air that occured during Paul Harvey's show today? I was listening to it on the way home for lunch. Paul let out a strange sigh right during the middle of a general steel commercial. Then, nothing for about 15 seconds. I stopped the car and my heart raced. I was terrified that he suffered a stroke or something during his broadcast. Then he came back on the air, mentioning something about starting all over again. Then he made a comment about having a story in his hands that he just...

Paul Harvey Tells It Like It Is Ouch, Paul Harvey commentary (I decided to transcribe it. These are Paul Harvey's exact words, not mine, but I agree wholeheartedly) Politics Advantage Out They can say I have a plan, and yet never define it. Incumbent politicians doing the best they can have exposed their own limitations, but the politicians on the outside wanting in can claim I have a plan for winning in Iraq . They never have to name it. I have a plan for saving social security. I have a plan for full employment. I have a plan for...

If I were the devil by Paul Harvey © 1999 WorldNetDaily.com I would gain control of the most powerful nation in the world; I would delude their minds into thinking that they had come from man's effort, instead of God's blessings; I would promote an attitude of loving things and using people, instead of the other way around; I would dupe entire states into relying on gambling for their state revenue; I would convince people that character is not an issue when it comes to leadership; I would make it legal to take the life of unborn babies; I would...

CAIRO, 6 July 2004 — Islamophobia is alive and well in the US, starting with the authorities down to individuals such as radio talk show host Jay Severin who, according to the Washington-based Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) claimed that Muslims want to take over America even if it takes centuries, adding “I’ve got an idea. Let’s all kill Muslims”. Amazingly Severin is still in his job, although he has been forced to apologize on air. CAIR has also filed complaints over an offensive skit on the March 10 Bill Handel show on KFI AM 640 entitled “the New Iraqi...

I got a question for all of you learned Freepers. I just listened to a Paul Harvey segment where he told of a 70+ year old guy who decided to be a bank robber. Went to the bank, pulled a rag over his face with no eyeholes, proceeded to bump into people, left in disgust, and the police pulled him over later. That was the Readers Digest version. Question - what are the voting patterns of criminals and would be criminals? Does anyone know of any research of those in prison and what political party they associate with or relate...

CAIR´s campaign of faxes and e-mails apparently motivated Harvey to retract his statement, saying through a stand-in that Harvey had been reminded that Islam is a "religion of peace." There is nothing Paul...

Did anyone hear the strange remarks by Paul Harvey this morning concerning the Smart case? He said that the Smart family had been living in rooms a block from the police station...for several days.
