Piers Morgan

Chestnut I know the difference between a fact and all the gossip, half truths, lies, misinformation, , bigotry, hatred, envy and jealousy flooding any thread on MM at the moment..

He failed in USA but apparently we have lower standards here

Yes Chestnut, I watched that interview and he did tear that gunlobbyist to shreds ??

Blue yes that awful Eamon Holmes and Steve Allen - it’s incredible what men are allowed to say about women on TV/Radio. And then people wonder why I believe the patriarchy reigns supreme. I have a theory about certain men - eg the three we’ve mentioned - and why they hate women so much. You can probably guess what it is.

Chestnut and/or suziewoozie

Did he seem to fail in America because he angered the gun lobbyists then?
Not a bad thing imo.

That could make him very unpopular indeed over there.

Apparently they just didn’t ‘get him’ the ratings tanked so he had to go. I don’t think one good thing ie the gun thing makes up for all the other awfulness. It’s like when people try to excuse all the DM awfulness on the basis they did good work on the Lawrence case.

Not just suziewoozies opinion. I've been reading up on this individual.

Read the references used in the Wikipedia entries - this poor excuse for a human being has broken every rule of decency and honesty and more.

To say the UK has a law against 'hate mongering'
(The Racial and Religious Hatred Act 2006) he seems to be breaking that law ever time he open his stupid mouth. Why is nothing done about that?

The people who have worked with him are loud in their condemnation of his arrogance and pomposity.
He is untrustworthy and a proven liar.

And yet, for reasons I fail to understnd this permanent resident of the USA continues to be paid a high salary in Britain (taking a job from a better journalist) for making a mockery of the values of most reasonable British people.

This morning I'd never heard of him.
Now I wish I never had.

BTW suziewoozie I wrote an article, 'Why men hate women - even the ones they love'. If you're interest in the theories, PM me.

Regarding PM I have no real opinion one way or the other but suziewoozie’s hate filled rant about him just typifies the hypocrisy and double standards she practises.

The expression you can tell a person by the company he/she keeps is apt. Piers Morgan was a good friend of Ms Markle up until she landed the big prize and she then cut him dead. That he knows her far, far better than anyone on here is also pertinent. If as suziewoozie says he’s vile and misogynist why on earth was the lovely, woke M associating with him? At that time Piers Morgan was more famous than her even back in the US. Could it be she was using him to get an in to the A list ranks and limelight she craved?

Hmm? It could explain his rants. Nobody likes being used and then just dropped as if they don’t exist.

You read it on Wikipedia so it must be gospel

harrigan Precisely

I somehow feel Piers and his giant ego could withstand any alleged slight by MM. I doubt very much she was ever friends with him in the first place.

You know that do you sparkii?

There's no doubt he has a giant ego but he does talk a lot of common sense and often stands up for what is right. The interview with the gun lobbyist was not the only time! Just last week he tore into some ghastly Aussie politician over the bush fires. I get that some people find him unbearable, and sometimes I do, but he is not as bad as people make out.

I don't know it not do I know him. Nor do any of us know the RF. I said " I somehow feel"

OK?

I didn’t say I liked Morgan just that I agreed with what he said about Meghan yesterday.

I don’t always like his interviewing technique although as has been said, he does get results from some difficult people.

It is perfectly possible to not particularly like a person yet sometimes agree with what they say.

Donald Trump falls into that category too.

I don’t ever watch him, but I sometimes hear about things he’s said. I think from what I’ve heard that he tells it how it is. I gather that upsets some people. I think I’ve seen him at least once on Question Time, and he was straight talking then (but I don’t remember the subject they were discussing.) I certainly heard about him knowing Meghan when he was in America and that she dropped him like a hot brick when she met Harry, but then I heard also that Meghan sought out journalists and others who could promote her and talked with them to try to promote her career. Don’t know if it’s true. I think it’s probably true though.

* tickingbird* and your posts are filled with half truths, gossip and misinformation. Where’s your evidence they were good friends?

‘Common sense’ ‘tells it how it is’ is generally right wing code for right wing racist misogynistic opinionated stupid bigot.

I don’t watch GM. I imagine Piers Morgan is purposefully acerbic to get the ratings up? Look, he’s even got his own thread here!

If somebody states on the TV or writes an article saying they were once good friends with somebody do we need further evidence?

Just wondering.

‘‘Don’t know if it’s true. I think it’s probably true though’

Sums up GN and the whole MM debate doesn’t it?

Agreed, Maddyone. Straight talking is never popular. People who say what everyone is thinking but are too polite to say! PM certainly does that and it really ruffles a lot of feathers.

Oh come on ‘merlot’ you’re brighter than that.

Sparkii
You started the thread by asking who one? earth is he please
But now this morning you know all about his ego and his friendship with, Megan, all this info gleaned after a few posts ?

An obnoxious individual !
