Faux Noise sickens me again ...
The radio legend Paul Harvey passed away this last weekend. I grew up listening to him on the radio and watching him when he had a spot on the local nightly news. He was a radio legend that kept himself from being "dated" and remained relevant into the digital age.
Of course, Murdock's honeywagon passing as a news channel managed to get a dig in when reporting his death. Saturday night I saw this flash on the screen.
--- PAUL HARVEY, the Original RUSH LIMBAUGH, dead at age 90 ---
It was a lucky thing I saw that on the screen while I was still working the table and not in the breakroom.
How dare they? Comparing Mr. Harvey to that corpulant, hate-mongering, racist, misogynistic drug addict? It makes about as much sense as saying --- Walter Cronkite, the Original Bill O'Reilly ---
