WHAT, No!!

I've talked about my love for Larry King before in this blog. After hearing rumblings that CNN is replacing both Larry and Campbell Brown by not renewing their contracts it seems to be happening. With Larry's bad press lately, you know, the sleeping with his wife's sister and also his wife's attempted suicide, Lare's got a lot on his plate. But, how can you let Larry go? And replace him with British journalist Piers Morgan?! He will start his takeover of Larry's show in October. The former newspaper editor has a deal to host an hourlong interview program which will start in the fall four days a week as CNN phases King out. He will also stay on NBC's show "America's Got Talent" judging panel, but is quitting the UK's "Britain's Got Talent." Though CNN said in a statement: "We don't comment on speculation. Rumors that we are close to signing a deal for a Larry King replacement are untrue . . . Larry is a beloved member of the team, and he will continue to be part of the CNN family into the future." I'm confused.
