For more than 20 years, Larry King has been a familiar image on CNN. His slouch, the suspenders, his distinct and oft-parodied cadence, all part of what made the man an icon on CNN’s longest running show, ‘Larry King Live.’

But that might come to an end soon. Variety is reporting that Piers Morgan, a judge on ‘America’s Got Talent,’ is a candidate to replace King, whose ratings have been slipping drastically in recent years.

Variety mentions reports from both the New York Post and the U.K’s Telegraph, which has the rumored four-year deal listed at $8 million. However, according to Variety, other British reports claim it could actually be worth around $14 million.
