like. today on larry king live he needs no introduction but i'll give him one anyway it's gay again my big regret is my dad died when i was a freshman in college so he never got to see this he would get the biggest kick out of knowing you know that i am now working at c.b.s. when people said charlie rose and gayle king i saw one review that said that's very audacious and intriguing did you ever at any point through all of this consider yourself a rival of oprah's or jealous of will oh my gosh i love this question plus bob schieffer is right that's what i love about c i was a comment on i thought that. it's all next on larry king now.

you're welcome to larry king now were known usual place was still in new york where we're at the studios of c.b.s. this morning with one of his costars my dear sister. so that's to see you again gail nice to see you larry ok bringing good news because to cheer remember that i mean the day they were sally look how we've turned out mom and dad did a good job of it isn't he and it's strange because they were both chinese and i thought that too i thought i was going here for it i would say larry knock on wood it's going really great how did this and how do you i did what you were doing radio so let's start over know it either way i love radio comedy and i know i know you i know you know it too because radio so intimate but i was doing a show on own the oprah winfrey network and one day your phone rings and you pick it up and it's kris like who says you know we're thinking about doing something at c.b.s. you know could we sit down and talk to you now i never think it's bad to take a meeting i had no idea what it was about why he was even calling me and i. i'd met

him through morning joe and he says well you know we're thinking about changing the morning we're looking at you know three people and at the time larry he didn't even tell me who it was he said we know one we're thinking about you we don't know who the third is going to be would you be interested and then the more i heard about it the more i thought yes i'm very interested but you jumped on a ship that's losing golds lost so many years to dead or you will know i think if you're going to jump on a ship and i realize it's so nice of you to point it out we've been we haven't been and never when it is we have to change the route is the number one network in america gets good those rules present more attention yes yes yes it's true but don't you think larry that's the best time to jump on a ship during the. journey i guess listen because what they're trying to do and what i think we're doing successfully is don't try to be like the other guys do something different and they set it up when they said charlie rose when people said charlie rose and gayle king i saw one review that said that's very audacious and

intriguing like both of those i like audacious i like intriguing you would never put the two of us together and then you know it started one way and now it's nora charlie and i and i think that alone is something different that you don't see at the other side and i worked on words the uniqueness of the show what was that what's your role well i mean i think all three of us have a very different role i think that we're all very talented i hope very well respected but we all have very unique areas you know i'm somebody who loves everything whether it's politics whether it's pop culture whether it's just day to day life and i've been a news junkie from the time i was a little kid so you know i grew up in a house where i lived in turkey as a kid but when we moved to the states we what c.b.s. with walter cronkite so to be in the studio where walters hangs is very special to me you know my big regret is my dad died when i was a freshman in college. and so he never got to see this he would get the biggest

kick out of knowing you know that i am now working at c.b.s. you know when i was little i used to think the news is so boring why do we have to watch the news and my dad said the news is the one thing that changes every day you should always know what's going on in the world and walter cronkite was that for your role is everything and one of the other roles well so you know it's we're on from seven to nine i join the newscast at eight o'clock and the first you know we always say the news is back in the morning and that's true you know i keep track of what other guys are doing like one year they were doing snooki and we were doing the fortieth anniversary of watergate i mean so when you look at what we do and how we do it differently that's a perfect example but when you come on it eight the thinking is it doesn't get lighter it's just that i'm an added to the equation is the show building. yeah we're just listen we're still number three note none of us are under any illusion about that but you know i look at it this way larry it took good morning america

close to seventeen years to get in competition with the today show in the in the second year we already have the highest gains of any of the other networks so yeah we're bending building and building nicely and it's not just an adult to me people literally stop me on the street and i don't think that they're trying to be complimentary or flattering just because they see me because they don't have to say anything but they'll say i used to watch film of the blank and now i watch you guys because i know that i'm going to get something that's very solid very good you play the ravings game i mean you look every day what do we do yes that we would have a bill yesterday or you into the night or not i don't play every day but i play every week. i do play every weekend ahead of you also watch what they were talking about our gerri good morning america the today show no because we're on at the same time so no i don't see a large tapes or anything if they're doing something that i'm curious about than i like when gaga was on good morning america i want to see it so i will tape it to

see what's going on robin roberts and i are very good friends so i don't feel a competition i think you know you'd let them do what they do let us do what we do and let the audience decide does c.b.s. tell you how long they give your show. to interesting question the morning show or more time for example if you're sitcom yeah you got a running here is for two years go by your gut level no you don't even you don't even get two years no you know what they said we know it's going to take time they did say that we know it's going to take time it was never given with a clock on it but i do think that had it been two years in and they saw no improvements i think you know there might have been some changes maybe i would have been on fifty seventh street going taxi but i mean so far so good but no we were not given a time is it still trying and i tell you what they told me yes we want to tell me i can tell you they said we want to be relevant. and we want to be competitive and so far we've delivered on that is still true this was true years ago but the today

show was very much helped by the tonight show doing well liz people went to sleep the shot of the stoves and turned drawn into a was on are you with help of letterman does better no not necessarily because i don't we're going to well no because c.b.s. is number one in prime time but you know when it comes to the morning show we still have some work to do so no i think now people have their remote controls people are switching around they just find programs they like and they stick with it bob schieffer is right that's what i love about seawater come in come out to see her come in i'm a rolling my dear old friend bob schieffer this is larry canyon. and i think this is going to hear story in the morning a lot. because he works hard larry is the best. part is super raw but you know you got to do on it was book him. or you aren't very done i forward. yeah you would be a good yeah and it would be

a good outing for. bob schieffer watch him every sunday face the nation which by the way is the number one sunday show now an hour just saying. c c don't you like that when that happens bob he's a great music no he is a good guest but that's the thing about c.b.s. every time you walk around the halls you bump into a legend he says to me when i was here and i saw charles osgood i want to go alone . meet you and poetry. did how do you want oprah because it then starts. well you know this is the thing we're now fifty eight fifty nine she's older and we've been friends since we were twenty one and twenty two jimmy so we were working at a t.v. station in baltimore as well on that oprah i was on that show what do you mean people it was not just people talking that was her go richard share which is share don't try to trick me larry my daughter yes a private school as a surprise guest is that i. was doing my national review show in local television

and that's how you guys we had a member over said to me i'm going to go to chicago yeah i wonder how old do yeah i told you how they do that turned out ok for her but you know were you doing that so i was a production assistant slash writer and oprah was the anchor woman at the time and we were the same age and we just became friends in the newsroom that's really how it started and we've been friends ever sent go to struggle with her no i didn't because then after that i went to kansas city and was a reporter anchor there i went to washington. and then i was in connecticut for eighteen nineteen years so we have never ever lived in the same city and everybody when they see me is that all how chicago i've never lived there they just assume because of her i live there and how do you switch from from broad from production to talent i i was in a reporter training program you put together a resume real you member those you put together resume real senate around the country i was very strategic larry even back then i got my little resume together i

sat with a phone book and a map of the united states and i said i want to look at the top thirty markets i want to go to a market where they have a sports team because i think that gives energy to a city and i looked at the book and called all of the news directors assistants and i said i introduce myself not on time for a job and my tape my resources are very limited. am i wasting my time sending my tape to you i'm young i'm single and this is what i do and i always know that the assistants know everything certainly before it's announced so i'm asking you what i fit in because they can't say no we're not looking for a woman no we're not looking for a black and they can't tell you that since i'm asking you and some would say you're wasting your time and others would say no please send it now look out for it so i sent it all around the country and was hired in kansas city is that strategic thinking. larry i thought i was so proud of myself i remember the map of the united states and the big broadcast your book that had all of the things the size of the

market and the size of the market when own started to do automatically. so you that you would join them i don't think it was automatic but it wasn't hard for your friends you study and that yeah you're do women know it's a logical livy well they asked would i be interested they did ask would i be interested my answer was yes and yes at the time you know i was by then i was now in new york working at the magazine and i'd still always like television after being in in hartford connecticut the c.b.s. station for eighteen years i left to go to the magazine business but i really did miss and love television so much so when they asked was i interested it was not hard and i was doing radio. or gee what do you do the mag is still with them and yes i'm still there the editor at large so i was there when it lot when it launched because they wanted somebody on staff who understood oprah's voice who understood her perspective and her philosophy and that was definitely me. so when i met with

elevating cathie black at the time i really thought and really saw that i could make a contribution there i worked for that the black and usa today oh i got us see how small our world is it is. did you ever at any point through all of us consider yourself a rival of oprah's or jealous oh my gosh i love this question. because this is the thing i've always felt and i don't mean to sound pollyanna oh my god but i have always seen myself as standing in her light not in her shadow i might have felt jealous or a rival if i thought that i could do what she does and even though we're both in television we do very different things i love the news she's sort of bored by the nose and i would only it would only be difficult for me if it some point i thought you know i could do that you know but even at the time when you know we were younger and i was married at the time and had two small children in my house would

look like you know a grenade and gone off and you'd come from oprah's house and it's lovely and gorgeous but i've come to my house and there's my cousin's big shoes. and kids playing i still felt very content it wasn't as big it was and is nice but i was so happy with my own life that i didn't i never once coveted hers or thought god i wish i could do that i've never had serious arguments no no no we'll be right back with the wonderful gayle king don't go away the wonderful yellow cake that's where you are it's big. we're not psyched to active camp at guantanamo where patients are forced back in the outer amount of our strike never turned the world's attention to the place that summed up job gulag of our time.

a good father you know i think you know i think he was you know i think he was good listen this is a thing we got divorced my kid. we're five and six and i didn't want to be one of those people that are ongoing and i want to you did to me. because you know i was not happy in the we had a problem with infidelity i'll just say that i've said it before and i decided that that's not how i wanted to live or stay in a relationship but he wasn't a good husband i think he was a very good father and to this day we are friends. no i think it's very important i never wanted the kids at the age of five or six to think that they had to choose i never wanted them to feel that they were the cause of it so i made a conscious effort not to go around bitching and moaning and complaining about it and your son's in china yeah he's twenty six doing what's so he's now working for activision he made it in chinese and school and he speaks a language and decided that he wanted to go over there and he's very happy that's

why i love the same call skype he joined us from wired chinese. know when and when he suggested it i thought it was different but i thought it was actually very smart so here he is this black kid will be in china on an elevator and people are talking about him you know asking all sorts of like is the basketball player as he is saying or easy this is what who is it what to say and then he'll start talking to them in chinese and it sort of blows everybody away no no neither one of them it was your daughter too so she's twenty seven and she's in d.c. working at the department of health and you know they're raising their pride in her room yet she's not furloughed you know i called her the other day and said you're going to be one of the furloughs and she said no so far so good no no and she married you know so you know the big became i was i was single we're all single i think this i really don't think anybody should get married i've told them this before you're the age of thirty because i think in your twenty's you don't really know who you are you're still trying to figure it out but i think if each of them

met somebody i think they'd be open to the idea you've always worked them right yeah yeah you raised children worked yeah. that was my game plan you know i always said when i was married i said i'm going to keep the job by the time they turn twelve thirteen i'm going to quit because i hear teenage years are different or difficult but you know there were it didn't work out that way and i realize i would not have been happy staying at home for some people it works that's why i think it's a great choice for women you can decide in many cases if you can financially afford to do it to do is go brizard rise above the image joab as you know listen not only did i ask her advice you know because at the time own was under the gun and i didn't want it to appear that even her best friend is leaving sinking ship yeah reading the ship no that really bothered me very much and if she had said you know i would think that's good i said you know i don't i don't like that headline i don't like the scenario that people can pay so of course i talked to her about it

and she said if if they offer it to you and it's a big if because we're just in the dating stage you should run not walk it's so perfect for you it's what you want you love the news and you don't have to worry about me or the network that's the last thing that's a real friend isn't it really is your thing she said i would never i would never want you to deny yourself that opportunity something we all deal with how do you deal with it the tabloids you do with them. well i used to get all worked up about it and i would call and say you know what they're saying you should do something you should say something there are sorts of rumors all the time when i got divorced that was a big rumor or you know somebody said there was once a story that they saw gail drunk and passed out number one i don't rank or they saw me involved in a fight that you know how i met one them lawsuit from i know as i saw that and i don't i didn't i don't want to do that. and this is now i feel at this age at the age of fifty eight people are going to say what they want to say there's nothing

you can do about it in most cases and you know so it's a it's a story for a couple of days and then it's gone so it really doesn't bother me anymore in today's age of internet twenty four hour news everybody's a reporter to the everybody's got a phone taken your pictures was also split up and gone that's right what you'd suggest is just that's right unless it was something really egregious in most cases i will just let it go. go where some social media question i love social media questions having fun on twitter oh ok who gave you the heart necklace you wear every day this was after a. when after i got divorced oprah had this necklace into earrings and i don't have pierced ears and she sent me a thing that said from your from my heart to yours the sun will shine again california girl on twitter wants to know what's your favorite part of being in new york. i just like the vitality of the city here i lived in connecticut for many
