2002, correct?

Marc Howard replaced him I believe.

Larry Mendte more or less replaced him. I believe it was 2002.

Larry Kane, Jim Gardner and Herbe Clarke! None better! You gotta love Philly!

Mr.Kane is a class act.I miss him already.

Larry Kane has always been one of my favorites. It's a shame that he and another great anchor, the late Roger Grimsby from WABC NYC, had trouble getting along.

I'm reading Larry's book on the Beatles' tours in the '60's, and it's clear that Kane is a real pro--it's written with a serious, adult attitude toward the Beatles and their fame.

@tdog0022 Marc Howard did indeed replace him. KYW didn't like the ratings at 6 and 11, so he was replaced at 6 and 11 by Larry Mendte and Alycia Lane, and Marc was moved to the 4 PM newscast.

I grew up watching this guy!

That was a heartfelt speech and I can see why Philly misses him a lot. He's like the Jerry Dunphy we had at KABC and KCAL--a class act.

Thanks for the reminder. I thought of Marc Howard as soon as I posted... what a great interviewer he was! Another great Philly Newsperson!

Don't Forget the recently retired Marc Howard.
