Remembering Larry King
b'Legendary talk show host Larry King died Saturday morning, a family member confirmed to ABC News. The award-winning newsman was known for his gravel baritone, signature suspenders and straight-forward questions, a style honed over the course of tens of thousands of interviews on the radio and television. After graduating high school, he got his first radio job in Florida in the 1950s. In 1978, he began hosting "The Larry King Show," a national radio program on Mutual Broadcasting System that he helmed until stepping down in 1994. During that time, he also made the move to TV. He hosted the CNN program "Larry King Live" from 1985 to 2010. Oprah Winfrey notably endorsed Barack Obama on the show during the 2008 presidential campaign. In recent years, King hosted "Larry King Now" on Hulu, RT American and Ora TV, a production company King co-founded with Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim in 2012. King was recognized with two Peabody Awards and one Emmy Award, among other honors. He was inducted into the National Radio Hall of Fame in 1989 and the Broadcasting Hall of Fame in 1992. King overcame several health challenges over the years, including a heart attack that led to bypass surgery, a stroke that left him unable to walk on his left foot, and a COVID-19 diagnosis earlier this month. He was 87. ABC\'s Matt Wolfe joins Tony with a look back.'
