Larry King bids adieu


Yesterday after 25 years at CNN, 77 year-old journalist Larry King hosted the last Larry King Live.
I quite like Larry. The suspenders, the ties, the glasses, oh and the signature Brooklyn accent. I love it all. Many a night i have held my eyes open with match sticks waiting up to see his show. Who he would interview next and how the interaction would be. The man has interviewed world leaders, celebs and even the Average Joe who has made headlines for something or another. People know they have made it when they are interviewed by Mr. King!
The thing about Larry is he isn't the "perfect journalist". He has many bloopers and flubs names on a reg. He is human! And i believe this ability to remain his dang self over the years is what has kept his ratings strong over the years.
The good thing is he promises to be back for specials on CNN. I hope so Larry.
