“For us, of course, an irreparable, just a terrible loss for Larry, Larry King, and not only for us - for the entire industry.
Larry King was the main legend of our profession, the main legend of world television, the most recognizable television personality in the whole world, the most recognizable television name in the whole world.
I myself studied from his books back in Krasnodar, actually in my childhood.
Of course, along with grief, we experience such pride mixed with great sadness that for the last eight years he worked and hosted the program on RT.
We even published two of his programs, ”she said.
As Simonyan said, the journalist always said that he would work on television until his death.
“And until his death, this television was our television channel.
He was glad of this and himself repeatedly said how great it was that during his time on RT he received more nominations and more awards than during his time on CNN.
He was a wonderful person, it was very easy with him.
A very correct, just right person, which are few and what rarely come across at all, not to mention the fact that he was incredibly talented, kissed by God, who does not believe in God - the universe.
This is what allowed him to become in 60 years - he worked in television for 60 years - an absolute symbol of television in the world.
We grieve and condole.
Kingdom of Heaven for Larry King, ”she said.
On January 23, at the age of 87, an American TV presenter, author of programs on RT, Larry King, died.
