Man of the Year: Larry King

Greatest News Ever:
Last night CNN’s Larry King confessed to Roseanne Barr that he’s never used the Internet. King expressed doubt that the Internet was a viable political medium because “there’s 80 billion things on it.” When Barr said she liked the Internet, King acknowledged that “I’ve never done it, never gone searching.”

Barr said King would love the internet if he tried it. King replied, “I wouldn’t love it. What do you punch little buttons and things?”

And the tubes! Don't forget the tubes!

I've always wondered -- are they like the old-fashioned pneumatic tubes? You know, where businessmen of days gone by used to prank someone in Accounting by sending a live ferret through the internal delivery system?

The father of a friend of mine worked on his initial, abortive TV show during the early 1980s manning the camera. He said one problem was Larry picked his nose on the air a lot. I guess he was useed to radio. FX
