CNN's Larry King's Son Does Spot-On Impression on Farewell Show (Video)

Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld answers a... Growing up in a big family, one of the things we enjoyed doing most in our house was impressions. We'd imitate other family members, TV stars, neighbors and anybody else that we thought took themselves a little bit too seriously. It's reassuring to know that other families do the same thing.

Last night Larry King, "The King of Late Night", said farewell to his CNN show, "Larry King Live". There was a star-studded line up of guests, including Bill Maher, Donald Trump and Bill Clinton on hand to pay tribute to King's 25-year reign as the premier interviewer of our time.

Kathy Griffin, Wanda Sykes, Lance Bass and Tim Gunn talk to Larry King about Anti-Gay Violence and Bullying (video)

Larry King Live title cardImage via WikipediaThis was a really great discussion on Larry King Live, despite Larry's sometimes cluelessness.

These societal values are passed down through our culture to the younger generation.

October is not just LGBT History Month, but it's also National Bullying Prevention Month. CNN's Anderson Cooper hosts a special presentation this Friday night at 10:00 pm called Bullying: No Escape. 

Enough is enough!
