back and cozy while powerfully inquisitive and deeply informative king was the benchmark he was the standard bearer for the television news interview to call larry king a legend in this industry of news and entertainment is not hyperbole from sinatra to brando to bill clinton i'm glad i'm here putin elizabeth taylor and lady gaga you weren't somebody in the world of politics and showbiz until you sat across that desk and took questions from mr king in fact according to the associated press larry king conducted an estimated 50000 on air interviews 50000. born in brooklyn new york back in 1933 the son of jewish immigrants from eastern europe king began his broadcast career in 1957 of a small am radio station down in miami florida he was all over radio and print the radio and print scene in southern florida throughout the 19 sixty's before going

nationwide in 1978 with the larry king show which was the very 1st radio call in show broadcast from sea to shining sea on over 300 stations around the country but it was in the early summer of 1985 on june 1st that larry king truly changed the face of news media forever with the premiere of larry king live on ted turner's then fledging network c.n.n. . larry king live would quickly become c n n's highest rated show pulling in millions upon millions upon millions of viewers before king left c.n.n. in 2010 this is one larry king once again broke new ground in news broadcasting by venturing into the brave new world of internet streaming and content creation with or a dot tv and then hosting politicking and larry king now here on r t america so today my friends let's celebrate the life work and legacy of the

icon and legend larry king as we start watching the homes. if you want to know what's going on a city street you want to see. yourself see see the prices you always state i'll see. mass graves see desolate systemic deceptions. which i would say but still. welcome everyone to watching the hawks. and i'm a cop and joining us today to discuss the career and legacy of the late great larry king is the host of news with rick sanchez the aptly named rick sanchez the host of in question millet's san and the host of the world according to jesse former minnesota governor jesse ventura thank you all 3 for joining us all 3 of us were touched by larry king in his career in our time working with him here at r.t. and even before we came here to work at r.t.

at the top of the show i briefly i briefly talked about just a few ways larry king impact of journalism through the medium of television and radio rick as a veteran newsman can you give our viewers an even better understanding of mr king's contributions and impact on the world of news and entertainment. there's nobody in television today or ever before or who was able to manifest interviews the way larry was and very easily easily explained moves people have what is called a book or that bookers job is to call people and get them to be on the show that you book for the book or for larry king had the easiest job in the history of the world the hardest decision well those who you could get who you were going to take up ass on because it didn't matter whether it was a prime minister the actual president of the united states at the time

a previous prime minister the most sensational. entertainer in the world in the world whether it's in music or or in the world of acting it didn't matter everyone was calling to be on larry king's show that's how big larry was. and while larry may have given it 8000 interviews jesse you've probably been interviewed 50000 times you thought across from larry king numerous times throughout your entire career in your opinion what made larry king fucking great interviewer. well larry was phenomenal and you know if you got a chance as rick said if you were fortunate enough to get on larry king it meant you were on the a list you know and it meant the world was going to hear what you had to talk about now i got on multiple times because i've written about a half a dozen books and i would usually get booked on larry show after writing

a book and we discuss it and all that and then of course larry would bring you on for expertise and i remember my my most famous quote that went throughout the world was i said on larry king and that was when larry brought me into discuss torture it was at the time the torture was the prime subject back in the mid 2000 is in there and i made the statement because i have been water boarded so i know what it's like and i made the statement on larry thet give me a waterboard one hour and dick cheney the and i'll have him confess to the sharon tate murders because i wanted to emphasize how powerful torture was that you couldn't trust it because the person being tortured is going to say whatever they have today on the torture so that was my most famous quote and because i said that on larry king it ended up being at yale university as one of the famous quotes of

that year so that's the power larry king had when you went on. plus i think the great thing about larry was you women there with the ships that you weren't going to get cheap shot it that larry would ask you tough questions but they would be quite st jude expect for every day. every day of your life if you have been to be involved in anything of controversy. manila as a young journalist and broadcaster knew about the opportunity to interview larry numerous times on your show question what kind of colleague a mentor was larry king for young journalists around the newsroom in the times that you've both worked with him here or when you're interviewing him on your show well i would say there were 2 parts to this that you could learn from larry are your takeaways from larry one of them was one of the things that can't be taught is just

something that larry himself had and you hope you can possibly imitate was just the ability to make people comfortable before the interview starts that they feel comfortable in speaking to you and and being honest and i think one of the main things i learned from from working with larry the last few years is that 1st of all you can't really interview the king interview where the master interviewer he would always kind of find a way to start asking me questions and i'm thinking wait a minute aren't i have a host here why are you asking me questions but what it was was that larry never made it about him and so for me my take away from from the lessons learned of working with larry on a on a regular multiple times a week basis was that you don't make it about you if you were the interviewer you make it about the other person and you need to be genuine and curious which i think larry was he was genuinely curious in the questions he asked and i think that came

across on screen and the people the viewers know that when you're when you. earnest i'm honest about what you're saying which larry was all of those things rick you've added the opportunity obviously as well to interview larry and also to work alongside him as colleagues what what is it what is the thing that you've taken away for your own career you've you picked up or learn from from larry over the years. you know he said famously. i never learned by talking i learned by listening he's absolutely right and the thing that larry did which was i think and what he did to his success was the fact that he asked very simple questions that were palatable to the gast and to those who were listening he had no problem with one word questions why. who. well. where i mean it was the ultimate 5

w.'s in a particular and at its core that's what we're supposed to do and journalists we're supposed to ask people questions and then learn from what they say and then maybe perhaps ask another question larry is great because larry came from radio and i have learned you know he and i both worked at w.o.t. that we both worked at c.n.n. and we both worked in our t.v. together so i got to know where he over the years and if you were to ask where and . i've been having right now what was the one thing you did got you started in the right direction and a new york patient radio radio is thinking on your feet it's having a real conversation would be people it's not that you met with a camera and it doesn't make you the most important person in the world it makes the moment a listener and the person you're talking to the most important person and work of them that's we're you know in the good old days that's how people came up in this business they knew how to do this little thing called ad libbing where you just got

to look at the camera and have a conversation with larry could do that with the best that's part of the reason he was somewhere and rick radio is making a comeback sort out in a different sense in terms of podcasts right now do you think that the leadership that larry king had to leave something for a new generation of young journalists who are emerging and what do you think his legacy to them. i think that's a great point and i think the obtrusive bullying world that we are now in in the media that we've seen with the advent of these television stations and people like bill o'reilly for example who was the 1st to do it on television. rush limbaugh was the 1st to do it our radio this kind of i'm going to be in your face and i want to make it all about me that is going to dissipate and then the larry king way of doing. that is good and we're now in the end and i'll tell you just

a quick and to anecdote about larry and bill o'reilly and it's this when bill o'reilly was trying to make his mark on fox news c.n.n. was the top of the heap and there it was the top of the heap at c.n.n. so along comes bill o'reilly getting wanted to take c.n.n. so he decided to take down larry king so dollars and you were step larry king was a phony only asked softball questions he wasn't real he didn't like his gaffes he was an aggressive and one day larry said look you want to ask me questions ask me questions why are you talking about me so bill o'reilly and i did larry king and larry king started to bill o'reilly when larry when bill o'reilly pushed him about the softball questions narrative and larry i'll never forget this moment just nearly destroyed bill o'reilly much training will you do interviews the way you want to do it and used and now do interviews the way i do interviews it's ok i'm

not going to tell you how to do yours and please don't tell me how to do mine and in the end you'll see who's right that isn't accused durian is proven that larry king's right i couldn't agree with a war and i think to the proof is in the putting as they say i'll hold 'd on there are 3 guests will have you back after this upcoming break all right everybody as we go to reg number that you can also start watching the hawks on demand through the portable t.v. the portable t.v. app which is now available for download on all platforms and the tribute to the late great larry king will continue this friday yes be sure to tune in this friday january 29th when our ti america will be airing a documentary and larry king's a very last interview as we go to break here's a little bit of the wisdom larry left behind for all of us to take a listen to. what we live for every day is to question more we question our children we question oh wise one christian relatives and we question what's going on in the news how else to learn without question and.

the world is driven by dreamers shaped by one person of those. who dares thinks. we dare to ask.

welcome back to watching the hawks in our special look back and remembrance of the life work and legacy of the legendary radio and television broadcaster larry king who passed away last saturday in los angeles at the age of 87 where once again joined by the host of the world according to jesse former minnesota governor jesse ventura the host of news with rick sanchez the one and only rick sanchez and the host a big question. jesse you work with larry king at or after he left c.n.n. when he was focused at building up streaming content on the internet as news media began to change in a focus was placed heavily on digital and social media larry king remained a staple what would you say was the key to his longevity in the changing media environment and what did you enjoy most about working with. well larry he did make the change you know when i find it very interesting right now when you're watching all the tributes to larry mainstream media and especially see

a man where he 25 years were caught. of c.n.n. they go through larry's history and it's interesting they cover his radio that rick talked about they cover his 25 years at c.n.n. and then what you talked about he made the transition into pod cast set or a t.v. which is where i started working directly with larry but what was interesting c.n.n. does all this biographical 4 stuff but the forget the last 5 years there is literally no mention of larry king here at our t.v. now wide like to ask why is that do they think it would somehow destroy larry's reputation if he were at our tea or is it to try to destroy our t.v. because our t.v. would get great credibility for having had larry king here for the last 5 years of his broadcast life and i'm finding that very interesting how mainstream media isn't

talking about his relationship with our teeth because i guess they wouldn't want to refer to larry king being an arm of the kremlin in a sort of way but then but then we're getting better during the day just to let me get i got to tonight i got to say something about that because i think it's really important point you just made it doesn't matter what the reason it's it doesn't matter whether the reason is the kremlin or this or that or the other the fact of the matter is what suffers there is the truth and they should deal honestly with the fact that they were the ones who essentially pushed larry out the door they should feel deal honestly with the fact that larry have he continued his career after he left c.n.n. and by omitting that that's a lie of omission and it troubles me i'll just share one quick anecdote and then i'll shut up the same thing happened to me when i had less than a man and he did this and they had a right to fire mages are going to right to fire anybody companies can do whatever

they want but i can't been the guy according to the new york times or the miami here or china and the social media you. at c.n.n. i was the twitter guy or whatever the hell it's called and after i was gone we did a 10 year anniversary of twitter on c.n.n. can you believe those s.o.b.'s did that without even mentioning my name it was shown obvious to anyone who had watched me that i had been a part of the twitter thing on c.n.n. and they just left it out as if it didn't matter and you know what do you just do agree a little bit more with just use do in there that's a law and broadcast companies who make their money or make their living by supposedly telling news which is supposed to be based on truth should lie now and i'm done i'm going to talk that's a tie i think it is very important that you both just pointed that out because from all of the in memoriam that we've seen it makes it seem as though larry king's career ended by years ago so i think it is very important that we continue to remember he was still very active and that's

a part of his legacy and i agree i couldn't agree more with everybody because that's you know his legacy in pushing online content and coming here and working there are 2 years is a big one mil you look and we mentioned earlier you've interviewed larry many times what what struck you most about your you mention that he would always kind of turn around ask you questions but what you what struck you most about larry's knowledge of politics and world events you know coming from someone who did question more constantly yeah i think it was larry that actually pioneered that question more i want to tag on a little bit to the whole podcasting and streaming i find it really interesting that i mean roughly 10 years ago it was larry's or a t.v. coming from somebody in his eighty's that really pioneered where streaming television was going he was on top of it larry knew where where believe it or not all the kids were going to go he was ahead of the curve so you know bravo to tell larry for having his finger on the pulse of where the media direction was headed

and as far as to your question. i think the i think the fun part of interviewing lariam and as you mentioned he would toss that kind of back to me because i don't think he could help himself i think but it was talking to somebody that was it was never a formal interview it was you know larry was just kind of like your sage friend that has seen it all been there done that talked to everybody who is anybody and because he would throw out those simple one line questions he shut up more and he listened to the guest and he would let the guests speak for themselves instead of kind of trying to narrate or guide his guests into saying what you know the narrative was for whatever network it might be whether it's c.n.n. m s n b c fox or what have you larry just let the guest be themselves he let them do them

and let them tell their own story so i think he learned so much from that because he used his ears and listened and so i think he led such a profound life because he heard so many life stories and anecdotes that he could apply it to himself and i think that's that's why his life was was so amazing and just so you know larry never once shied or go ahead please of what i was giving to piggyback on that literally understood that which most hosts don't get their names on the show. has to be the star of the us to do everything to perpetrate that position or continue with oh he's the star of the star larry understood his name was on the show but by making the guests the star that lifted larry the start of even beyond

a lot of his guests here we are to be spending alors talking about the career of. larry king we don't spend hours necessarily talking about the careers of the people who you interviewed did do we it's a great morning it's a great point. so who became the star. point and rick you were a journalism student i was to you also got my start radio what do you think were the most profound lessons larry king career and legacy have left on the field and what do you think any advice he would have had or aspiring journalist would be what do you think you know what is the impression somebody like larry king have left on careers and radio and t.v. journalism. passion for what you do if you don't love which you're doing don't do it get the hell out go find something else to do there is no question that my mother and i knew larry for decades and i remember listening to him in my end it

was the he was look i'm a big miami dolphins fan obviously i played college football and that's how i was going to go to school my parents going to board quickly in college so i got a football scholarship i went to going to school in miami dolphins spent my whole life larry keating was one of the original play by play guy for the miami dolphins so he was the voice the announcer who did the dolphins games he wanted he had a new earning from getting into radio worked his way up went to miami worked at w.o.t. the wonderful isle of dreams where he got the gig working with the dolphins time the dolphins were that good but they went on to become one of the greatest teams ever and you have to be there then he started working in some of them you i'll be getting how did she know then you got picked up by the mutual broadcast radio network and it was larry king coast to coast every single i'm the only guy here except for jesse who remembers that but every single human being who was in their car any time after 8 o'clock at night was listening to mary king interviewing

a book author or somebody else telling a story and he did it so it definitely because he the student julie can learn. to be a storyteller because he gives through radio that is how you get good at your craft younger stories are going to jump out of here and i have to jump in here he's an actor please go hey rick wait a minute rick rick santorum and i also archer minnesota. minnesota rick. and i started running and we got a full scholarship to the university of minnesota played at morehead state then went to minnesota graduated and then went back to miami looking at larry do you remember and larry king actually still brings this brings this great conversation so i got a little bit of time left i saw this what i was jesse what is your final quick thoughts on the remembrance of larry king. i'll miss larry king i'll miss larry king because he was a character he's an icon to television and if you watch television

and you believe an icon who's larry king's a good one to have they'll never be another interview a man like him again. will have final question very quick thought on larry he was very judicious and very thoughtful in his answers and when you ask him about all the famous people he knew i know he had a ton of dirt on donald trump but he was very very kind and judicious every time he was on i could never get it out of larry and god bless you larry we're going to miss you oh that we most of we are written very quickly in about 10 seconds last autumn larry. there is one person in this world it's had the most appropriate name and that was larry king because he truly was when it came to broadcasting and she'll always be remembered as the king well everybody that is our show for you today i want to thank everyone for joining us today and talking about larry king and i also want to say remember everyone in this world we are definitely not told
