It has never been clear to me just who CNN wanted us to think Larry King was
- the serious news and political analyst they seemed to present him as
during elections and times of national crisis, or the celebrity ass-kisser
and paranormal fetishist he seems to be most often on his show. I assumed we
would get an idea of who CNN really thought King was when they name his
replacement, which for many years I thought would be someone like Bob
Costas, who is a skilled interviewer, excellent broadcaster and splits the
difference pretty well between serious and pop culture. With this
announcement CNN apparently is telling us that they also thought of Larry
King as a star fuc*er. After twenty five years, its..nice...to..know.
