Larry King has spoken

I heard Larry King on Howard Stern one time tell one of the funniest stories...I'll try to condense it here quick:
King was in NYC shooting some kind of movie or show in which he had a bit part. The production company sent a limo to pick him up to take him to the set. The ride shows up and he expects this driver to look like a doorman with the tie and long coat and the chauffeur's cap and all. Instead he's this big burly guy in an army jacket and a black skullcap. "I'm your driver." King says "Oh, ok. You don't look like what I expected." King gets in the car and the driver explains to him that the Teamsters have the sole livery contract with the filmmakers and entertainment industry in NY to jockey the talent around. King says "Oh, well what if a person wanted to use a different service or had their own arrangements." The driver looks at him in the rear-view mirror and says "Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha."
Well at least that should offset Herbie's non-stop shilling to get OSU into the playoff. So, we have that going for us. Which is nice.
Cool beans!!! Now even the Russians know about PSU football.
Most folks are not really aware of what Larry King has resorted to in these late years. Some will be shocked to find out. Check it:

RT
In May 2013 RT America announced that King would be anchoring a new talk show on its network. King said in an advertisement on RT: "I would rather ask questions to people in positions of power, instead of speaking on their behalf."[53][54] He also is bringing his Hulu show Larry King Now to RT.[55] RT America is established as a non-profit organization and is funded by the Russian government. While claiming autonomy[56] RT has been criticized as being a propaganda outlet for the Russian government[57][58][59] and its foreign policy[57][59][60][61] by news reporters,[62] including former RT reporters.[63][64][65] RT has also been accused of spreading disinformation.[66][67][68][69] The United Kingdom media regulator, Ofcom, has repeatedly found RT to have breached rules on impartiality, and of broadcasting "materially misleading" content.[70][71][72]
Man's gotta eat. Of course, there is more. But, that would veer toward a test board level discussion.

whenever I hear about the Teamsters.... I always think of Back to School... with Rodney Dangerfield...
"and if you are going to use any cement in that building I am sure the Teamsters will want to talk you"
Might be the single best movie scene of all time
Which interestingly, may solidify its position as a far more reliable and far less biased outlet than the collection of totally in the tank, corrupt and discredited "Fake News" MSM outlets in the US.
