Sportscaster Bob Costas Hired As Regular 'Larry King Live' Substitute

Bob Costas will become a regular substitute host for Larry King on CNN, conducting prime-time interviews about 20 times a year, the network said Wednesday.

The veteran sportscaster is currently host of "Costas Now" on HBO. Both CNN and HBO are owned by Time Warner Inc. King, 71, celebrated the 20th anniversary of his show last week by interviewing former presidents Bush and Clinton, Watergate sleuths Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein and CBS' Dan Rather.
