One of great American voices signed off yesterday when broadcasting pioneer Paul Harvey passed away<\/a> at age 90.<\/p>\n

CHICAGO (Reuters) – Paul Harvey, who captivated millions of radio listeners daily with his staccato delivery, firmly set opinions and old-fashioned outlook, died on Saturday at the age of 90, ABC News said.<\/p>\n

Harvey died at a hospital near his winter home in Phoenix, the network said. No cause of death was immediately available.<\/p>\n

He was on the air for more than 60 years, becoming a fixture across the United States in 1951 when he joined ABC Radio.<\/p>\n

Working out of Chicago, Harvey started his show each day by barking, “Hello, Americans, this is Paul Harvey! Stand by for news!” and would sign off with a forceful “Paul Harvey … good day!” In between, he flung out a variety of trademark phrases that listeners came to expect like, “Stay tuned for the rest of the story” and “May I have your undivided for just a moment.”<\/p>\n

Harvey’s twice-daily radio broadcasts at one time reached an estimated 22 million listeners who tuned in for his observations, homespun wisdom and opinions on the news.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It’s hard to image a world without Paul Havery he’s been the voice of the American heartland decades.<\/p>\n

Godspeed Paul,we’ll miss you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
