"I’ll still be a part of the CNN family, hosting several Larry King specials on major national and international subjects.

I’m incredibly proud that we recently made the Guinness Book of World Records for having the longest running show with the same host in the same time slot. With this chapter closing I’m looking forward to the future and what my next chapter will bring, but for now it’s time to hang up my nightly suspenders."

[kidd]

But where will we all go to get our Jon Bennett Ramsey news?

[Made In The USA]

As much as I’m addicted to the news and politics... other than what few moments viewed from surfing channels, I have never watched a Larry King show.

[MortMan]

Perhaps suspenders interfere with chakra?!?

Has anyone ever seen the Goracle wearing suspenders? ;-P

More seriously - I have never sat through an entire interview conducted by the mummy. God willing, I never will!

The last time I watched him was when Ross Perot was on before he handed Clinton the Election of 1992.

"Larry, Which one of the three candidates would you want your daughter to marry?"

Now he can run around in his boxer shorts full time.

[a fool in paradise]

This frees him up for more sexy time with his wife’s sister.

[YankeeReb]

That record still belongs to King Solomon.

Wasn't Larry a cub reporter covering his court?

[eleni121]

Well that’s it from a whole lot of nothing about a whole lot of nothing.

[SevenofNine]

What that debate between Sex crazed poodle Al Gore and little General Ross Perot talk about NAFTA LOL!

[conservativebuckeye]

I believe he’s interviewed every president since Martin Van Buren.

[onyx]

Yeah, Larry is the crazy uncle in the attic.

Good one, Chief!

:)

[Crawdad]

The Larry King columns spoofed by National Lampoon were the funniest things I ever read.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

Is Larry’s new wife wearing him out? Time for him to not only hang up his suspenders, but also his Rogaine or toupee, false teeth, Depends, Hemorrhoid cream, and Viagra.

Now, don’t get me wrong. King appears to be a nice guy but he is a liberal and his show showed it.

Time for him to ride off into the sunset.
