Larry King Announces Retirement After 25 Years

Larry King will retire as host of CNN's "Larry King Live" after 25 years, he announced Tuesday evening.

King will step down from the program in the fall, but remain with CNN.

"I talked to the guys here at CNN and I told them I would like to end Larry King Live, the nightly show, this fall and CNN has graciously accepted, giving me more time for my wife and I to get to the kids' little league games," he wrote on his blog. "I'll still be a part of the CNN family, hosting several Larry King specials on major national and international subjects.

"With this chapter closing I'm looking forward to the future and what my next chapter will bring, but for now it's time to hang up my nightly suspenders," he added.
