[laserguided]

[QUOTE]Famed US television interviewer Larry King will host a political chat show on Russian government-funded television network RT, the channel has said.

Politics with Larry King will air on RT America, which will also broadcast a second show, Larry King Now, that has appeared online since last summer.

In his five-decade career, King, 79, has interviewed presidents, athletes, film stars, and other US luminaries.

He hosted a chat show on CNN for 25 years, retiring in 2010.

RT, which launched in 2005, attracted attention for broadcasting a show with Julian Assange, founder of the whistle-blowing website WikiLeaks.[/QUOTE]
