So what do you think, if it is indeed true?
I can’t see a Brit replacing Larry King. I love watching shows from Britain. However, I don’t think the average, middle American would like the accent.
Especially in times of a major crises. People want to be comforted and reassured by someone they feel connected too.
In fairness, I doubt Larry Kings New York accent would go over well on the BBC. He wouldn’t be the guy they’d look to for comfort after a terrorist attack.
Is this being reported elsewhere yet?
I would listen to Larry King after a terrorist attack so that I can remind myself that there are worse things out there than terrorist attacks.
He is a loathsome slug-faced toad. ITV in their madness seem to think him, along with the talentless Amanda Holden, should be plastered across the screens in their endless cheap and tacky sub-pier talent show format.
I’ve watched Larry King since he started on CNN. I like his shows when he’s covering hard news. I rarely watch his celebrity interviews.
It’s kind of sad seeing Larry change in the past 10 years. The years have not been kind.
Now, please, don’t go out of your way to praise the man.
Piers Morgan is actually a loathsome, slug-faced dogshit.
No please tell us what you REALLY think 
At least he’s got that in common with Larry.
It’s bad enbough that he appears on our screens here in the UK at all but I for one am amazed at his apparent visibility (if not popularity) over in the States. Clearly a “posh brit” accent can get you anywhere regardless of talent.
People of America reject this non enitity.
Can somebody explain why this Morgan fellow is disliked, and why so strongly? I don’t know anything about him, except that he offered to go on a date with Susan Boyle so she would no longer be someone who had “never been kissed”.
Piers Morgan is an obsequious, oleaginous, egotistical cunt. You’re most welcome to him.
This episode of Have I Got News For You shows Piers at his, um, “best”. Merton, Hislop, and Deayton are not amused.
Hey, we already have him. He’s our Celebrity Apprentice, our most honored position! We only offered it to him, Joan Rivers, and Bret Michaels.
They are our holy trinity of celebs.
You forgot “lying”, “hateful” and “scum-sucking”.
Seriously - the man has no redeeming traits whatsoever.
A disgusting, odious, tabloid hack sack of shite.
Watch and wait.
I think it’s brilliant news. Provided his replacing Larry King involves moving to the US full time and never appearing on British telly ever again.
Larry King is only 76?
Plus: bigoted, arrogant, greedy and vain.
Why? Everything he does and everything he say. He probably even brushes his teeth in an annoying way.
He had a terrible semi-libellous and often plagiarised column in the Sun for years and then somehow got catapulted into great success. I’d say he’s actually evidence that God exists, because Piers Morgan’s clearly sold his soul to the devil for the right to be a c-list celeb.
