Larry Kudlow ended his nine-year run on his CNBC show on Friday by thanking his viewers and declaring at the end of his "Kudlow Report" program, "I am a blessed person."
"Let me thank all the viewers who've stayed with me down through the years and all who have wished me well," said Kudlow, 66, fighting back tears as he continued his farewell. "I am truly grateful. … And to all of you out there, as always, thank you — and God bless you."
The CNBC host, who is regular guest on "The Steve Malzberg Show" on Newsmax TV, retired from full-time work at the network on Friday. Kudlow will continue at the cable network as a senior contributor to various CNBC business and news programs.
"Kudlow Report" began in January 2009 and offered a mixture of politics and business. The program succeeded "Kudlow & Company," which aired from 2005 until October 2008. Before that, starting in 2002, the program was called "Kudlow & Cramer" — with investment guru Jim Cramer as co-host. From 2001 to 2002, the program was called "America Now."
Tributes had been pouring in all week — including many on Friday via Twitter — and the last show followed Kudlow's standard format: There were discussions on business, politics and the economy and interviews with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and magazine publisher Steve Forbes.

I thought of him more as a corporatist masquerading as a Reaganite.
RE: Was he pushed out?
No. He just said that at age 66, he’s made enough money and wanted to devote his time and energies to other things.
Poking you.

A man obviously who had seen the worst in himself and fought back long and hard to bring good to the world.
A man to be admired and praised.

UHHHH Laz? Back on the meds now.....
Uh,... Laz,....sounds like you need to go hit something.....
Good wishes Larry, whatever you do next. We could use more like you. We didn’t agree on every issue, but you believe in America and capitalism and you weren’t agraid to say so every day.
Making Robert Reisch say your motto out loud and then playing it over and over was fabulous.
If congress was full of Kudlows we’d be a hell of a lot better off.
