RIP Larry King

LOS ANGELES — Larry King, the suspenders-clad known for his interviews with world leaders, movie stars and more, died at a hospital here on Jan. 23. He was 87.

A longtime nationally syndicated radio host, from 1985 through 2010 he was a nightly fixture on CNN, where he won many honors, including two Peabody awards.

MSTies will remember he was mentioned in a host segment in episode 1011- HORRORS OF SPIDER ISLAND, which parodied his syndicated newspaper column.

The AP has the story.

    Why did Larry King wear suspenders?

    He wanted to win the No-belt prize.

    RIP

    I loved his story about when he was a late night radio DJ in Miami. His shift ended at 6am, when another guy would take over…one night, he decided to leave early and just threw on an LP… while driving home, he switched onto his station and heard the record skipping, over & over again… he said he didn’t even bother to drive back, because he KNEW he was Already fired…LOL R.I.P.
