Former CNN presenter, Larry King, has died at the age of 87.
King conducted an estimated 50,000 interviews throughout a career that spanned six decades.
This included 25 years as host of the popular CNN talk show, Larry King Live.
He died at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, according to Ora Media, a production company he co-founded.
Earlier this month, he was treated in hospital for Covid-19, US media say.
The talk show host had faced several health problems in recent years, including heart attacks.
“For 63 years and across the platforms of radio, television and digital media, Larry’s many thousands of interviews, awards, and global acclaim stand as a testament to his unique and lasting talent as a broadcaster,” Ora Media said in a statement.
