If you are tuning in to Larry's program for reportage, you aren't really overly concerned with balance, are you. You're more interested in whether Angie Dickenson is still getting the job done in the looks department.

Not a news reporter. He is a liberal talk show host.

Reporter? If Larry King is a reporter, then Joe Franklin is Edward R. Murrow. In fairness to King, I've never followed his life story-- I know he interviewed people for a radio program in Miami at one time, landed a national radio gig (if I remember right) during the 1980's, and now does it on TV for CNN, but it's hardly what I'd call reporting. Even using the most liberal definition of "reporting", King is a cipher...he asks the most obvious and superficial questions, doesn't seem to get the answers most times, laughs in a transparently fake, gravely manner when appropriate, summons a modicum of enthusiam only when discussing sports or Brooklyn, and seems halfway alert only when interrupting a guest's answer to make sure the timing of that crucial commercial break is rigidly observed. His guests and topics run the gamut from interesting to ridiculous (from Middle-East peace to whether the creepy Octomom has had plastic surgery), but even when they're interesting, you're not going to get an in-depth interview with Larry King. Just won't happen. As far as bias, a mackerel sitting on ice in your local supermarket has as much evident bias as King does. I'm assuming he leans towards the left, but that's only because he has Bill Maher on his show so often.

He hasn't been a reporter for years. Now he's just another talk show shill, much like all the rest.

Stupidity or naked liberalism...I sometimes get the two confused.

Biased?BIASED!?He's too senile to be biased. He has Jerry Seinfeld as a guest (during the last year of the show) and Jerry had to lead Larry through the most obvious of questions. Larry is a senile old fart who is fifteen years past his prime. Whatever 'bias' he may or may not have pales in comparison to his lack of perception and recognition of the contemporary world and pop culture.

Larry King is WAY past his prime and should retire already. He's extremely biased and is a flaming liberal and from what I've heard him say, is an atheist or agnostic at best, Some of the interviews I've seen him do lately, he just seems lost and confused at times. Btw, nice mugshot.

For all of you people in the Washington, D.C. area - next time you see Larry King Live (and I mean out in the air), stick out your tonques!!!!

Just another commie schill.

First, Larry should not even be on this list. He is no way, shape, or form a reporter and will tell you so. He is an enteratiner who is the king of the softball questioners when it comes to interviews.

Everyone has an opinion that will surface now and then. But I'm not willing to believe - be it Liberal or Conservative - that everyone has an agenda. I've watched Larry King quite a bit over the years and I honestly don't detect anything except a guy who seems to want to present a variety of people, opinions and topics. Sure, he has his own belief system. But he lets people talk - even when they don't agree with him. And on top of that, he treats them with respect. I like him.

I'm not sure Larry even belongs on this list. Larry is a softball-question interviewer who is geared toward an entertainment audience rather than journalistic.

Bias? Possibly, but I wouldn't even include him on this list. He's not a news reporter, he's a celebrity interviewer. I guess sometimes he'll use his show to report breaking news, but I don't think too many people pay attention to him anyways.
