(October 3, 2022)--We were longtime fans of the late Paul Harvey, the legendary radio broadcaster. His voice was captivating, and his commentary was always spot on. Many of his recorded comments can still be found on the internet today and on CNBNews.

Paul Harvey epitomizes what journalism was like before the era of social media and the 24-hour news cycle came along. The video below was made on March 8, 2003, at the R&R Talk Radio organization' annual seminar. Harvey was 84 years old at the time. During his acceptance speech, there are several moments when he becomes emotional as he reflects on his distinguished career.
