Sometime back Paul Harvey did a "The Rest of the Story" about the author Patricia Cromwell and Mrs. Billy Graham. The first version was not in favorable to Mrs. G. About a week later Paul Harvey revised it to be more favorable.
On Monday 12 & Tuesday 13 Paul Harvey did a two part "The Rest of the Story" about Bush dating Tricia Nixon and having "Cheney" as a wingman. Bush was portrayed as being "Data-Man" very intelligent and smart.
I think this might be an attempt to divert attention away from portrayals such as Saturday Night Live as being "dumb."

Several years ago I heard a Paul Harvey bit about Whitney Houston's song "The greatest love of all". Now, I'm not a big Whitney fan, and I certainly don't list that song among my favorites, but it is a decent song about self esteem and self worth. His bit made it sound egotistical and selfcentered.
Ever since then I have very little respect for his "slant" on things, and loathe his commercials disguised as news.
