You probably saw him on The Jeffersons as Florence's boyfriend in the episode Florence meets Mr. Right, but Los Angeles area member will know him as the longtime anchor on KTLA news. he died yesterday at age 71. He appeared in tons of tv shows as a reporter. I know not everyone knows him, but I posted for those who do here the link: http://ktla.trb.com/

Larry...was he a skinny black guy? I think I have seen him on KTLA. If it's the guy I'm thinking of, he didn't look that old!

Yeah, I heard yesterday and was able to record the 10:00 PM, channel 5 news. The station devoted about 15 minutes.
I am shocked that he was 71; he looked in his 50s! Can't believe he's gone. I usually watched the 10:00 PM news on ch. 5 on the weekends.

I don't live in LA, but I'm in the upstate region of NY. I've never heard of Larry McCormick. But I've never seen him on the news in years. Sorry, Larry. RIP:crying:
