Larry King has renewed his contract with CNN through the year 2011.   His talk show, always among the network’s highest rated, has been on since 1985.   According to a source close to the network, executives are fond of King because “we didn’t have to write a Senility Clause in Larry’s contract because ‘been there done that.’”  The source added that the only “out clause” is fine print that he can be released from his contract if the mummification process accelerates and makes it impossible for him to communicate.

Larry King threw a tantrum at his 9 year old son’s Little League game, arguing with an umpire until he was ordered off the field and forced to watch the game from the bleachers.    “Larry’s emotions are running high,” said a source close to the talk show host.  “It’s a hormonal thing – he’s so freaking old that he’s now approaching the teen years of his second childhood.  His second puberty is growing near, and he’s going through the same rebellion and mood swings.  Like any teenager, especially being around those 9 and 10 year olds, he’s a bit of an a-hole.”
