OLD BIRDS

With CNN chief and AOL-Time Warner big-wig
Walter
Isaacson
in Washington for the State of the Union speech
and to meet with CNN staffers in the D.C. bureau, the producers of
"
Larry King
Live" were looking to make a bit of a
splash on the post-speech Wednesday night show. "We're feeling some
heat with the
Connie Chung
signing," says one King
staffer. "She's so light and soft in her questioning, and Larry's
been the king of softball stuff for years here. We want to separate
ourselves a bit."

So producers wanted to line up some Republicans and Democrats
and have them go at it. But King apparently had other ideas and
pressed for an hour with former Texas Governor Ann
Richards, who criticized
President George W. Bush some and even gushed about the
humanitarian wonders of Cuba. "It was kind of embarrassing," says
the staffer. "Here we have a president with 80 percent approval
ratings, and we've got this liberal old bird spouting off. It was
just a head-scratcher for all of us."
