MSNBC has disclosed the contents of a personal letter that Larry King wrote to embattled Congressman Gary Condit urging him to appear on his CNN interview show. In the letter, King offered to air the interview “without edits that put you at the mercy of selective sound bites and packaging.” King then disclosed that during a recent trip to Sea World with his children, “I did a lot of thinking about what I’d do in your shoes.” He then continued: “I want my kids to know that it’s not the tough situations we face, but the way we handle them that defines us. Gary, tell your story.” In the end, Condit told his story to ABC’s Connie Chung, deciding, according to the MSNBC report, that King’s letter was “a tad patronizing.”
