Hollywood Remembers Legendary TV Host Larry King

Hollywood is remembering veteran journalist and talk show host Larry King who has passed away at the age of 87.

The sad news was announced by his company, Ora Media, on Twitter.

“For 63 years and across the platforms of radio, television and digital media, Larry’s many thousands of interviews, awards and global acclaim stand as a testament to his unique and lasting talent as a broadcaster,” the statement reads.

Larry had been hospitalised with COVID-19 in late December last year, but his cause of death hasn’t been revealed.

Talk show hosts, actors, musicians and other journalists are flooding social media with praise for the man who inspired them… or just made them feel like a friend:

Larry King’s sons, Larry Jr, Chance and Cannon, have also released a statement which reads:

“The world knew Larry King as a great broadcaster and interviewer, but to us he was ‘dad’. He was the man who lovingly obsessed over our daily schedules and our well-being, and who took immense pride in our accomplishments — large, small or imagined. And through it all, we knew without a doubt in the world that he loved us more than life itself.”

They continue to describe how much they’ll miss him every day of their lives and thank everyone for their “outpouring of love and remembrances of his remarkable career.”

They ask anyone thinking of sending flowers, to make a donation to the American Heart Association or the Beverly Hills Fire Department EMS instead “to which a debt of gratitude is owed for the wonderful care they provided to our dad in his final years.”
