Why does Larry King not use his teleprompter?

Question

Larry is such an institution and I enjoy his show so much, but it makes him look so unprofessional when he is so obviously reading his questions, word for word from some paper on his desk.
In contrast hosts like Lou Dobbs is looking straight at you and his questions seem so spontaneous.
The problem is that I look forward to Larry so much, that when there is a guest host on his program I am so disappointed, and most often just turn off the set.
Larry seems to have a sight problem, but could we PLEASE get him to use his teleprompter?

Answer 1

he is set in his ways from all those years on the radio.
