    He seemed to be old forever!

    Who are TV shows and Movies going to go to now to interview their characters?

    He was a Journalist before journalists were political activists, it is a pity his legacy will be so badly besmirched as to be associated with CNN. RIP and to live to 87 after 8 wives, that is test of grit for any man.

    Yes I think he married one woman twice back in the 70's. I liked to watch him alot when we first got Sky Digital in the early 2000's such an interesting guy and cool content compared to povertyland RTE.

    His moderation of the 1993 NAFTA debate between Al Gore and Ross Perot was a masterclass in moderating.

    Bubblegum arsehole of an interviewer.


    He could have Hitler on his stupid show and the question would be "So tell me, Adolf, and all the viewers, what REALLY is your favourite tea, and why? .... we'll be right back with my esteemed guest, Adolf Hitler, after these messages."

    Morgan is the very definition of an opportunistic attention whore scumbag with almost nothing, beyond his awkward bipedalism, to recommend him for inclusion in the human species. A twat of the highest order.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    Yeah I always viewed him as old forever too.
    I think that's because most of us on this side of the world would have first seen him in the montage of the first Ghostbusters movie back in 84. He would have been 50.

    Rip Larry.

    Now, a word to our audience: even though we're being broadcast on...Fox, there's no need for obnoxious hooting and hollering.
