As with any promise of a new way to watch or deliver TV shows, I will
reserve comment on ora.tv until it is actually up and running and we
can see if it's another Hulu or another Joost. Regarding Larry King, i
remember listening to his show on radio around 30 years ago and I
watched Larry King Live mostly around the OJ trial days in the
mid-nineties. I don't think he brings a lot of value to this new
venture, especially to people under the age of 40. In fact I would
compare this to Mark Cuban hiring Dan rather for HDNet. Whatever
credibility or high profile he expected to get never really came.

I wonder what kind of guests they expect Larry will book. If the best
he can do is the same pundits who appear on every cable news/talk show
there won't be enough to set him apart and build an audience.
