Larry King to Trump: Sad!

So this required two fearless TPMers to make a fairly deep dive into the byzantine post-CNN Larry King media universe. But the upshot is that King’s production company makes clear that Trump was always booked for “PoliticKING with Larry King”, the video show that appears on RT (the Russian state owned news channel formerly known as Russia Today.)

This is contrary to Team Trump’s claim that they were booked on King’s podcast.
