TORONTO Condolences and personal anecdotes poured in after news of Larry King’s death Saturday, as celebrities and public figures alike react his passing. King was hospitalised with COVID-19 in the new year, but had been moved out of the ICU earlier this month. King’s death is “terribly sad, because there’s no one left like him in broadcasting really,” said veteran Larry King Live executive producer Tom Farmer on CTV’s News Channel Saturday. Farmer, reminiscing when he produced the show in the 1990s, said that King had an “insatiable curiousity, and would interview anyone about anything…people tend to think of Larry in terms of celebrity interviews, but he was a man who could cover a terror bombing or a crisis in the first half of the show and then pivot to Roseanne Barr in the second half without missing a beat.”
