Today’s the New York Daily News has a back-handed compliment for CNN’s #1 host:
“Maybe it’s his suspenders. Or maybe it’s his seven wives. Or guests like Tammy Faye Messner and psychic James Van Praagh. Whatever it is about Larry King, Osama Bin Laden apparently digs him.”
That’s right, the terrormaster ‘is a Larry King fan,’ according to Peter Bergen, author of the new book ‘The Osama Bin Laden I Know.’
True, Bergen is an analyst for CNN, but he says there’s no question that the Al Qaeda leader is a ‘news junkie.’
‘He’s not living in a cave – he’s living somewhere with more amenities,’ Bergen told us Monday at a Core Club party for his book. ‘His most recent statements show a Talmudic attention to the news.'”
