The Rest Of The Story: New Lawsuit Centres On Old Paul Harvey Segment
Paul Harvey has been gone since 2009, but now he's part of the rest of his own story. The estate that controls the rights to the famous syndicated radio feature is suing a production company not only for using a part of the well loved segment in a TV show, but for changing the meaning to make it seem like Harvey was saying something he wasn't.

I used to listen to Harvey's 8;30am newscast on CKTB.

I loved The Rest Of The Story and Harvey had the perfect delivery. I believe it was written and researched by his son, and it was a must hear - when I could find it. I don't think it was the big deal in Canada it was in the U.S., but I always found it highly entertaining and the surprise ending was usually worth the listen.
Here's a sample if you've never heard it.

I never liked Harvey's old fashioned and rather naive political views, but once I went on a road trip across the US.
As I listened to Harvey on a radio station while driving through Nebraska it all made sense.

Pure serendipity that Mr. Harvey's 'The Rest of the Story' was being kicked around yesterday in a football bulletin board I frequent. I think that for at least 50% of the stories listened to, at some point I was hollering "FOR GOD'S SAKE, MAN, GET TO THE POINT!!!"
