Don't particularly like the bloke but he was just expressing an opinion on a news story. An opinion is neither right or wrong, it's called a debate.

It just seems at the moment if someone disagrees with what is portrayed as the most popular view you are seen as difficult or an arsehole.

His opinion is not mine but he’s entitled to hold it. What he did though was walk off in a huff when someone on the show gave him a piece of his own medicine and he couldn’t handle it

That’s the issue for me

Almost certainly put on, makes him the biggest talking point outside the royals and coincides nicely with his negotiations for whatever he's about to do next

The problem is not grifters like Morgan it's that people like shit stirrers instead of wisdom, nuance and expertise.
All so depressing.

Do the people truly want it?
Or do the moguls and players steer it that way?

No they want it. Populism is populism for a reason.

I've just watched Sharon Osborne on American TV, being told she's supporting a racist... Forgive me... Is piers Morgan disliking meghan and letting us all know how much he dislikes meghan racist? I not sure and I don't understand how people have made that correlation without their being any racism lol.

This is partly the problem.

Yea piers is a c**t, he wasn't racist

Getting really tired of the culture war going on in the UK. You either hate or like, there's no middle ground. It's tribalist bs.

Agree with this. He clearly holds a weirdly obsessive grudge against her but it's never seemed racial, more that she stopped being his friend. He turned on Trump once the unfollow button was pressed on Twitter too

I don’t think that this was a wise tweet... she’s almost legitimising Piers’ claim that Meghans mental health concerns were not true.... which is actually the reality of why Piers left GMB.

That on its own is an horrendous critique of the U.K. government. Piers Morgan can take the moral high ground on them.

The thing is with that is that people mistook somebody shouting over somebody as "really showing them".

Who cares about the shares though? The bloke made a living from scaremongering and pushing negativity every morning. I have no doubt it will have affecting people's mental health over the lockdown listening to him.

I felt shit loads better not having the TV on every morning or just putting a music channel on.

Totally right. G thinks that falling GMB viewership is more valuable than getting a bigot off our TV screens.

Has its share price not tumbled because ITV have announced a 39% fall in profits?

In what way is he a bigot exactly? I don’t like him but I think he’d be consistently obnoxious to anyone and like him or not he is interesting I suppose - I’ve never watched the programme I have to say

I don’t know about showing them but he wouldn’t give them free reign to bullshit at a time when what the country absolutely doesn’t need is bullshit. I guess the old adage is true. You can’t bullshit a bullshitter.

Nah its not interesting. It's just scare mongering, division, negativety.

It would be like spending 3 hours every morning with David Johnson if he's shouting stuff about ccfc. Just because he shouts at something it doesn't mean he showed them.

Obviously he was there for the division he caused.

That's just because he shouts over people at every point.

The fact he was trying to scare everybody every day about covid while he was a fucking hypocrite anyway.

That article shows only a snippet of the true picture. On Monday and Tuesday it’s share price was even lower. If anything it generated a buzz in ITV before it stabilised back to normal. It’s price now is no lower than it was before.

He is interesting clearly and will be having million pounds contracts waived at him as we speak
