Re: Talk TV
quite ironic that a man who's built a 30+ year career being paid by Murdoch et al to express controversial views and shout down anyone who disagrees with him is now bleating on about free speech.
will probably watch it at some point (I try not to judge anything unless I've seen it), although suspect it will end up a sideshow for people that like getting angry about things

Re: Talk TV
Well, some people support free speech but also support being able to do what you like, from verbal abuse to physical violence, in response to others exercising their own right to free speech in a way that offends them/they mildly disagree with.

Re: Talk TV
Well Morgan certainly has a history of being aggressive, angry, petulant and vindictive to anyone who holds views that aren’t the same as his.
Think he needs to take a long look in the mirror before he starts preaching about freedom of speech. It’s not really about that at all though, just publicity and $$$$$

Re: Talk TV
His programme is on for an hour, it seemed longer tbh, I've never liked him but hold similar views to him on 1 or 2 subjects
Generally it looked professional with no major glitches, certainly knocked GB news off the park imho

Re: Talk TV
Self-publicity on steroids.
I think he gets a bonus every time he says woke.
I loved it. As comedy, not news or current affairs.

Re: Talk TV
Tom Newton Dunn was on before him, had Boris live in the studio but it seems everyone so far is judging the channel entirely on Piers Morgan
Didn't watch much of the segment that followed Morgan, as Jeremy Kyle was on it & I dislike him more than Morgan

in the above clip Corbyn's explanation for calling Hamas friends was at best disingenuous or to be less PC, fookiing liar

Re: Talk TV
I gather some news channels aren't naming the 2 Royals accused of being racist in this latest book?
Talk TV have via Piers Morgan & if the Forum rather the clip below is not played for 'some reason', delete please.

Re: Talk TV
I am sorry to say that there are many precedents as to why the clip should be allowed - on this page alone I counted three that included Piers Morgan. There may be more but I couldn't take it so gave up.
Furthermore, if we have to put up with Corbyn I think PM has to be allowed.
Also, it's a clip of what someone else said, so I think we are on safe legal ground regards mentioning the royals involved.
I haven't closed the report because I think it's funnier left as it is for now!!

Re: Talk TV
In reference top quote, the fact that some news channels aren't naming them made me wonder if there could be legal issues?
Just to be clear, the news channel who have stated they wouldn't name them was GB news

They didn't name them on HIGNFY last night, just slagged off Piers for being a massive hypocrite(/other things)

Re: Talk TV
My opinion of Morgan would fall in the other things bracket but agreeing he's a massive self opiniated chap. However, he does occasionally have have guest on that discuss interesting, at least to me, subjects & its their opinions I want to hear, hearing his is unavoidable.murf wrote: ↑02 Dec 2023, 12:46They didn't name them on HIGNFY last night, just slagged off Piers for being a massive hypocrite(/other things)

Re: Talk TV
I stumbled accross the tail end of an interview with Scobie on ITV yesterday, certainly not investigating journalist, 2 clowns sat on a sofa being very nice to this shithead
Morgan was ranting about what he claims were lies Scobie had written about him in this book, calling Scobie a LIAR on more than one occasion. I wont post the youtube proof, another sighting of Morgan would send Murfs blood pressure through the roof
But
Here's a link for anyone who wants to view it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HToB-SRD6kQ
