Why does nobody know that Larry King went to RT???

Any time an American reporter leaves RT, the media portrays them as a hero. (Sara Firth)

Any time an American reporter joins RT, the media portrays them as an anti-American terrorist. (Abby Martin)

Larry King leaves CNN and gets his own show on RT... nobody knows or even hears about it.

Just goes to show you, any information that would give RT any credibility at all gets suppressed, while any information that would discredit RT is promoted repeatedly.

I would say it's because Larry King is an old hack, but regardless of that he is still basically an A lister and anything he does seems to get reported on. So I'm with you, I had no idea he went there and I suspect it's because that lends some sort of credibility to RT.

He's definitely a hack. I thought he retired.

He's not, he's just old. He didn't get to be Larry King being a "hack".

And if he's now at RT? That says something more.

You know what's fucked up? Why doesn't the guy retire? Has he just created such a shitty empty personal life that all he can do is work?

Why do a lot of barbers work up until their last days of life? Some people just enjoy the work environment they have lived in the majority of their lives. Not that their personal life is horrible, maybe the work and personal life are just intertwined. Why should a job be something that you are just waiting to retire from?

The only job I don't want to retire from is a blow job.

He's got a pretty damn interesting job.

Only people who watch RT know this, the Western Media will want him dead for giving RT credibility. Larry King is obviously one of the good guys

One of the good guys who hates media censorship

Well, RT certainly need the credibility

RT has just the same amount of "credibility" as CNN, FOX, NBC and all the other MSM networks; it certainly doesn't have less, I can expect to see more accurate reporting on US fuckups from RT than I can from the western media.

Does Larry King actually work for RT? To my understanding RT has bought a license to broadcast his show via Ora TV.

Exactly !! Larry King is not working for RT. His show is being distributed (syndicated) by them, but it is not run by them.

Got any videos of Larry King spitting mad truth on RT?

3  godiebiel 2014-11-10

Larry King does not work for RT. His shows gets distributed by them, but it is still an independent production.

There are several people over at RT who switched to them for their own show. Look at Thom Hartmen.

I watch main stream news, then I watch RT. It is amazing how the coverage from these two networks are the polar opposite on the same story. Frankly, I have a hard time believing either side because every state seems to lie to it's tax cattle to appease and soothe them.

tsk he might even be a reptile :o

Larry king's age hasn't dulled his wit. Most of us asking for his retirement don't have half his knowledge. Who is then a waste of space?

1  WarHymn 2014-11-10

I have never liked Larry King. I think this is an odd move for him and RT.

-1  jafbm 2014-11-10

RT has a poor reputation due to the fact that they never back up any of their wild claims (like Faux News)

2  club-mate 2014-11-10

Just like any other news agency.

What the fuck is RT?

Russia Today, I believe
