Hoobert Heever -- that's Harry Von Zell, in one of his first assignments for CBS in 1930.

How about this one, from 1948:

"I don't give 'em hell -- I tell the truth about them, and they THINK it's hell!"

Truman?

 

[LizzieMaine]

Indeed so. He also said "When I get thru with you you'll need a couple of beefsteaks for black eyes, and maybe a supporter down below," so it's pretty obvious nobody messed with Harry.

How about this quote:

"Hollywood is where they shoot too many pictures and not enough actors."

"Dirty Harry" Truman snicker

OMG, I've hit the 1000 mark and didn't even know it :O

I cheated. Fred Allen. I'm so ashamed. I just couldn't help myself. I Googled it.

I did too and like you, I felt like a cheat, hence no answer from me.

I thought so! It sounded nasty and grumpy, just like his character.

Nope, it was Walter Winchell, who could be just as funny as Groucho when the mood struck.

How about this one:

"Hollywood is a trip thru the sewer in a glass-bottomed boat."
