Ryan Seacrest is Wanted to Take Over Larry King Live

When his tenure does eventually end, Larry King said his first choice to succeed him would be Ryan Seacrest, the “American Idol” host and disc jockey, presuming he is interested.

“He’s the classic generalist,” Mr. King said, his eyes peering through rectangular lenses that evoke flat-panel televisions. “The only thing I don’t know, and I’ve gotten to know him pretty well, is how versed he is in politics, world affairs. Does he read the paper? Is he interested in Iraq? Because if he is, he’s going to be very good.”
Told of Mr. King’s comments, Mr. Seacrest, a sometime guest host on “Larry King Live,” said through a publicist that he was flattered. When Mr. Klein was asked about Mr. Seacrest, he was complimentary, though diplomatically noncommittal.

I’m not 100% sure, but I’m pretty sure, Seacrest wouldn’t know Barack Obama from Sanjaya Malakar.
