Broadcasting
editThe show was the first venture by Ora TV, an on-demand TV network founded in March 2012 by King, his seventh wife, Shawn Southwick–King, and Carlos Slim.[1] In May 2013, RT America announced that Larry King Now would be broadcast on their network as well, along with the Ora TV show Politicking with Larry King.[2][3][4]
Larry King Now aired its final episode on February 7, 2020[citation needed], less than a year after King suffered a stroke,[5] and less than a year before his death from sepsis in January 2021.[6]
