Larry is on the scene...

Continuing the saga of Dr. Bartha, we learn that CNN had a man on the scene almost immediately after the blast. It seems old Larry King was staying in a hotel just around the corner ( 62nd/Madison). from Bartha's Blast. So, upon hearing it, he rallied on out to see what all of the commotion was about...(even senile folks will respond to an explosion). Larry went over there and covered the story live, via phone as I recall.
He lingered for quite a while until other CNN types got there with camera crews...it is apparently easy to linger when you wear Depends.
