Piers Morgan

MS, here's a thing....there was a time delay between my post and today....I know amazing eh?

During this time, I watched a few bits and pieces on you tube and so on. I don't know about his friendship with MM, anymore than you know about the inner workings of the RF. I am a pleb who captures snippets of information.

I think M has been badly treated, just as many others in the RF have been badly treated. I just don't really care tbh.

Exchanging messages on Twitter and meeting once for a drink ( 90 mins) equals ‘being good friends’ ? ???? MM never saw him again after that one meeting - I can quite imagine why. I wouldn’t have lasted 10 minutes in his company. His claims to some special status is all part of his self delusion.

Ah now we have it, ‘right wing’

Perish the thought anyone on here should be right wing!!

How dare we !!

suziewoozie MY posts are filled with half truths, gossip and misinformation?? Your arrogance is on par with your obduracy.

Piers Morgan has often spoken of his friendship with Meghan long before any of this blew up. Will you enlighten me as to how you know so much about Piers Morgan? How do you know so much about this whole issue above and beyond the rest of us? You fall back on foul language and insults whilst demanding higher standards from everyone else. Labelling PM a prick?! What’s that all about? You think you know better than everyone else - you don’t!!

MerylStreep it is truly amazing what you can learn on Gransnet.
I should ask "Links please?"

suziewoozie you tend to tell it how it is - what is that a euphemism for?

BradfordLass Piers Morgan is British (English) so is as entitled to live here as any other British person even if some of us wish he'd go back to America.

He is controversial, that's for sure.

This is how it goes these days.

'I don't agree with you. I'm (always) right. You've been misinformed.'

End of!

He’s like marmite

There's no doubt PM has both good and bad points. When he interviews a politician he puts very direct questions to them, and if they fail to answer or talk nonsense he will show no mercy. I think we would expect that.
But he can get hung up on certain issues and will bang on about them endlessly which can be tedious.

Ahh and there we have it - Right Wing. Well didn’t you just know it!! Typical lefty liberal - so intolerant whilst preaching tolerance and understanding from everyone else. As I said on another thread why can’t people comment without bringing their political bias into everything. We’re all rabid right wing racists!

merlogran Spot on! 10.00 today

Don't most actors use journalists, chat show hosts to further their careers?

Why else is there always a tedious list of them promoting their latest films, TV shows, autobiographies on these shows?
All seemingly best friends with the hosts of the shows?

Common sense would dictate that someone who is involved with the RF would want to back away from such gossip journalists.

Piers Morgan didn't succeed in America because his racist right wing views are unacceptable and he is a loud mouthed bully. Why on earth anyone watches him I don't know apart from anything else he's boring. Listen once and you can predict exactly what he will say.

According to The Guardian it was “ his outspoken views on gun control that riled the American heartlands”.

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

Sums up all of your posts Suzie.

Oh dear maddy I rather think you are a bit cross.

St Piers

Trisher, PM may have right wing views (or he may not) but to say that his ‘right wing’ views are unacceptable in America seems a little disingenuous to me, since the Americans elected Donald Trump, despite his perceived image as right wing and a bully

maddyone Quite! 10:56

Who is he? On looking for an answer to this question, I came upon this description:
British journalists & media figure, known for his aggressive attitude, fired by the Daily Mirror for publishing British soldier mistreating prisoners in the Iraq War, for which he was fired.........

He's got such a supercilious expression. I suppose he can't help the face he was born with.
He could do something about his nasty tongue though.

trisher if Morgan failed to succeed in America because of his racist rightwing views how come they elected Trump as President?


If you think that the UK is a racist country and the USA is a beacon of enlightenment you haven't been to the USA!

Callistemon I have no doubt there are right wing and rascist people in the US however they tend not to dominate the media where women and people of colour are not only treated with respect, but are powerful and influential (think Oprah). Listen to Piers Morgan talking over women all the time, arguing racism with women of colour and those powerful people are going to get rid of him. The fact that our MSM is still dominated by white men means he can get away with it here.

There must be a lot of right wing and racist people in America if they elected a right wing President, after all, the other candidates failed to be elected.
Incidentally, Oprah is powerful
Piers Morgan is powerful
They are making a living from tv journalism. They court controversy, that’s what gets viewers.
I don’t watch either myself.
