Bill Marler appears on Larry King Live & Letterman

We always preach about the power blogs have to establish lawyers as thought leaders in their practice area. There isn’t an attorney in the country who is more of a “thought leader” for their niche than food safety attorney Bill Marler.

Monday evening, Bill Marler was a guest on Larry King Live with other food industry experts and family members of victims affected by E. coli. It was a bit surreal; Bill also lives on Bainbridge Island and that makes this the first time I’ve seen someone on the ferry and Larry King Live in the same month. Here’s a clip from the show. The opening segment is the best as things start to get a bit off track when other panelists open up a meat vs no meat debate.

Below is a segment from  Letterman’s monologue that Dave calls “Larry King Highlight of the Night.” Highlighted in the video pulled from the Letterman Show is Bill’s reaction to Larry stumbling through the pronunciation of E. coli
