Piers Morgan - why his virulent hatred for Meghan Markle?

115 replies

Not a Harry & Meghan thread as such but a genuine question as to why Piers Morgan is so offensively outspoken about Meghan Markle?

I won't do an extensive c&p exercise but some links below are indicative of Piers Morgan's general style.

Is this Piers Morgan's general persona or is this reserved for Meghan Markle?

PS. I only know of Piers Morgan as Britain's Got Talent and decades ago as editor of the Daily Mirror

etc etc

Yeah Im not a royalist but even id love it if Harry turned up one morning and took him outside, for a proper duel like the old days. The footage of Penis pissing himself would keep ITV going for a few years alone.

Piers Morgan once gave a talk at my university. Allegedly he was stood in the SU afterwards offering students money to talk to him. Grin £20 apparently.

Yeah could you imagine the uproar if there was a left wing version of this on for hours every morning on a major TV channel?

Someone should do a tabloid takedown on PM. Why do journalists get to opine and rant about people’s behaviour and morals without exposing their own?

At least now the queen has issued her warm and kind statement, the DM is no longer using PM copy / tweets / GMB etc as its inflammatory headlines

Because he's a racist c**t.

Very interesting article in the Guardian about the context to some of the more virulent anti Meghan PM / other tabloid reporting

There's something very weird going on with Piers Morgan. He's not letting up at all. I half expect him to ease off Harry and Meghan - but no such thing is happening. On the contrary, his pressure intensifies. It doesn't make sense. There's no logic or reason to it. I assume there's something going on behind the scenes that we don't know about. Maybe to do with Meghan's Lawsuit against The Mail?!

I thought Piers looked ill this morning on GMTV. Very pale.

If it "takes a narcissist to know a narcissist" there are an awful lot of narcissists posting on MN as every second person seems to know one, given the amount the term is used.

Good. Maybe he's about to cark it

Ha - Piers Morgan now admits he may have been a bit excessive here and should have reigned the personal attacks back a bit
