Larry King To Be Replaced By Piers Morgan


Larry King, the 76 year old host of "Larry King Live" may very well be replaced. The British newspaper Daily Telegraph says that Piers Morgan will replace King in the fall with a multi year, multi million dollar contract. CNN denies this, of course.

CNN's "Larry King Live" has been taking a nose dive in the ratings. He's down to 771,000 daily viewers, a dip of 43% over last year.

Morgan is a judge on NBC's "America's Got Talent." We also saw him on Donald Trump's "Celebrity Apprentice." This is probably a good move by CNN, but could they have done better? Conan O'Brien?
