CHICAGO - Paul Harvey, the news commentator and talk-radio pioneer whose staccato style made him one of the nation's most familiar voices, died Saturday in Arizona, according to ABC Radio Networks. He was 90.

Harvey died surrounded by family at a hospital in Phoenix, where he had a winter home, said Louis Adams, a spokesman for ABC Radio Networks, where Harvey worked for more than 50 years. No cause of death was immediately available.

RIP, He will be dearly missed.

Tulsans should be proud that one of the greatest communicators in American journalism was born and raised in Tulsa.

Thank you Mr. Harvey

Re-united with his beloved Angel.  Thank you for the memories, Mr. Harvey.

There will never be another like him.

I heard that he never attended reunions and wouldn't speak at the fiftieth annivesary unless he was paid.

Yes and no. I have read the same report before. He later apologized for asking them to pay, once he found out that the reunion was his own. Of course, he still didn't come.
