...so anyway...good luck to him in his career as he’s chosen not to stay and used his freedom to resign as well...

UserSince2005 10-03-2021 12:49 PM

Maybe Piers rejected him and thats why he is so arsey with piers.

Evidence has been provided in this thread of Morgan's obsession with Meghan. And Morgan got personal claiming that she was lying about her mental health and again got personal with his colleague by making her stand up and show off her dress, which she was clearly uncomfortable about.
Like it or not, he was bang out of order. Accept it, move on with your life.

there is no evidence of that

his job is to speak about the news stories of the day

If he was a lollipop man i would agree but as a lead news anchor, well need i say more

Susanna talks about her just as much as its her job

There's no evidence of what? The evidence?

His job as a news broadcaster is to give the news. Not to tarnsih those with mental health problems as liars and the sort that need to man up.

Didn't Harry sue The Daily Mirror for hacking his phone when he was a teenager at the time Piers was Editor? No wonder Meghan ghosted him after she and Harry got together

Ammi 10-03-2021 12:58 PM

...GMTV is supportive of mental health issues, I believe...and Piers had no tolerance or understanding of any mental struggles that Meghan was having, even when she spoken about being suicidal...thats a huge clash of values between employer and employee, I would say...so he chose to find something that was more in line with his own values...

The fact that Piers was complicit of the phone hacking of victims of crime, murdered children etc etc shows he has a blatant disregard for anyone's mental health. He is a typical poor debater, he shouts his views over anyone who is trying to debate with. He was a ratings winner, sure but as an actual journalistic professional, he was woeful. The reason he was a successful print journalist is because he could spout his bile without fear of hearing the other side.

He will resurface somewhere no doubt and will be successful again. He has come back from equally reprehensible actions and prospered so I have no doubt he will again

Amy Jade 10-03-2021 01:14 PM

wasn't he the one behind Jade Goodey's phone being hacked after she passed away too?

Tom4784 10-03-2021 01:18 PM

He'll go off to that safe space GB News channel, no doubt. May he rot in irrelevance with the rest of the hypocrites on that 'news' channel.

There's no difference between the two, both will be right wing echo chambers for people who prefer fiction to news.

What he said was so low, even for him.

Not fact checked but said on twitter

Would appear that Piers was right Meghan is a liar ~ The English owners of a restaurant called Rose Tree Cottage in Pasadena said that Meghan attended twice to learn how to drink tea, how to curtsey, etiquette and how to address the queen ! This was when she first started dating Harry ????

I'll wait for the bashing

arista 10-03-2021 05:18 PM

Piers was shown going into in London Front Door, (BBC1 News)


That was Crazy
now people that hate him can locate him.

Pier is of course right and therefore you can doubt anything she says.

That woman is a permanent stranger from the truth

Anyone who believes that is a permanent stranger from reality.

Meghan got quite a few of her ‘facts’ wrong.

He acts like the phone hacking never happened, I bet if someone brought it up he'd accuse them of trolling him . He's a pathetic sleazeball, he's turned journalism into a big fat joke .

As for his debating style , it's insufferable ,rude and very disrespectful. It's impossible to sit through .

Rob! 10-03-2021 06:18 PM

The question now is who takes over? I doubt ITV will want to go for a safe option. They need to keep the differences between GMB and BBC Breakfast as established as they have become.
Richard Madley's name seems to be doing the rounds.

Crimson Dynamo 10-03-2021 06:22 PM

Madeley would be great

:amazed:

"Record figures"

The figures yesterday were BBC Breakfast 1.25m and GMB 1.29. That's a difference of 40k. And that was from 8am which means people woke up, read that **** had kicked off on GMB and tuned it to see the aftermath. It really is nothing to write home about.

Yes because viewing figures always mean they like the person doesn't it :pat:, people tune in for drama .

INCORRECT

Piers Morgan delighted as Good Morning Britain pulls in 'highest ever audience'

"Monday’s show, presented by Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid, peaked (at
6.40am), with a 32.3% share, while total viewers peaked (at 8.40am) with
1.65 million.

Peaked is very different to the overall average :joker:

"don't worry, he'll get a job at GB News!" [emoji23] [emoji23]. A journalist with a career spanning decades and an extensive mainstream broadcast career, will be perfectly content with ranting his little pants off preaching to the choir on the Freeview broadcast news equivalent of Parler. An actual hoot [emoji1657] :hehe:.

I honestly don't think his ego could take it. He couldn't take Markle's rejection, he couldn't take a milquetoast takedown from a GMB colleague, but he'll get out of bed every morning to appear on sad niche telly? It's not going to happen is it. Don't get me wrong - it'll be REALLY, REALLY FUNNY if it does - but it won't.

Social media hot-air and a "tell all" autobiographical account of his time on GMB (which will, because Bwitain, no doubt be a best seller) is what I see on the horizon for him.

Crimson Dynamo 10-03-2021 09:24 PM

He is a millionaire with a cast iron pension

He will do what he wants

And love life at the same time

I imagine so.

Quote:

Obviously but I can't see him wanting to go from mainstream daytime telly to niche-news on channel 685 or whatever, honestly he'd be better off starting a YouTube channel, it really is just sad. Each to their own I guess.

In due course I'm sure, he's pretty bitter right now, I saw his tweets. I wasn't allowed on here so I had to go on Twitter :worry:

Good of GMBHD itv
3 presenters Ben, Kate and the Doctor
to talk of Piers Morgan's
good interrogation of the many MP's.

No hard feelings from them.


And they are going to Debate
Freedom of Speech

All far better than slow bbc1AM

Ammi 11-03-2021 06:38 AM

...I think personally that ‘controversial’ has a very short lifespan/shelf life etc, it’s quite a disingenuous thing...and if successful, as Piers has been, obviously...it’s that thing of inevitably believing your own hype and having no personality other than the one you’ve created, which is how it felt when he had no response to Alex because he wasn’t the one ‘in control’ in that moment...and his ‘creation’ of controversial Piers wasn’t fitting with mental health care, which is what the show promotes...there’s a clip being shown atm with Piers insisting that Charlotte Hawkins stand up and show the viewers the dress she’s wearing because he’s saying that it’s short like a ‘mini skirt’ so he knows that summer must be here if that’s her outfit...excuse me, what on earth...?...they maybe should have considered his position much earlier as a front man of their programme...
