"American Idol" host Ryan Seacrest is reportedly in talks to take over Larry King's talk show.

In addition to "American Idol," Seacrest works for E! News and KIIS-FM in Los Angeles. But the source said he could definitely handle the gig.
"His background is in being a generalist," the source said." He's known for his work with celebrities, but he came up through mass radio. He could pull it off."
