Not sure how closely this relates to radio, but since his character worked for a faux "KORN", I think it's close enough to count. Canadian TV actor, producer, and comedian Don Harron, best known in America for portraying bespectacled newsman Charlie Farquharson (a character he first developed for the CBC in 1952) on "Hee Haw", died over the weekend of prostate cancer at the age of 90. On the show, Harron, as Farquharson, sported an overly well-worn wool sweater, newsboy cap, granny glasses, and a 2-day growth of beard and read the local rural news about some very unusual happenings.
