When Legends Die

There is something different that we feel when someone who we have watched on T.V since our childhood passes away. When Michael Jackson died, I didn’t really grow up on him, but I remember it being on the news for weeks and weeks. For my parents it was almost an end to an era in their life and they never even knew him personally, but you always saw him in the media or heard him on the radio.

Last year this time we lost Kobe Bryant and it literally moved the earth I swear to god. You didn’t have to be a Basketball fan or watch it every day, everyone and I mean everyone knew the name Black Mamba.

And once again we lose another key member of our Television childhood, that being Larry King. Larry King is one of the biggest known names when it comes to Interviewers. Doesn’t matter if you didn’t watch CNN yourself but If your parents were watching you must have saw him on your screen.

Over his whole career he hosted 50,000 Interviews, which is absolutely insane. He started off in Miami as a radio interviewer then gained hype and started The Larry King show. In 1985 to 2010 he hosted Larry King live on CNN after that he continued his interviews which aired on platforms like Hulu, Ora TV and RT America.

Larry King poses as an inspiration in the journalism world and it is without a doubt his passing has been felt across the world.
