No news is good news for CNN

Dr. Jan Adams, the plastic surgeon who apparently botched a procedure on Kanye West’s mother leading to her death, appeared last night on “Larry King Live” last night to announce … that he wouldn’t be appearing on “Larry King Live.”

In this clip, King actually handled this befuddling moment fairly well, asking in bewilderment, “Will you ever answer questions? … Where does this go?”

In this clip, King discusses the non-terview. Amusingly, it lasts more than twice as long as the interview itself. Bizarrely, King reveals that Adams actually stuck around until the end of the show after he walked off.

And in this clip, CNN's Lola Ogunnaike further deconstructs the incident. Pretty impressive how the absolute absence of news becomes news itself.

Not sure what the big deal is. The White House has been throwing press conferences then refusing to answer questions for years.
