NY Post: Paul Harvey to be replaced?

[Scott Fybush]

Not an easy question to answer, these days (assuming, that is, that I'd 
ever encourage her to get into radio - I'm trying to be a GOOD parent 
here, after all!)

Much as I respect the journalism practiced at NPR, I've never been much 
of a fan of most of the on-air delivery there (Scott Simon is a notable 
exception.)

I'm not at all impressed, delivery-wise, with Michelle Norris or Melissa 
Block on ATC. Renee Montagne on Morning Edition is pretty good.

On the local news level, Judy DeAngelis on WINS in NYC is one of the 
best in the business, and I'm quite partial to Diane Stern on BZ as 
well, though of course having written for her for several years, I'm 
terribly biased.
