So Piers Morgan has huffed off.

OP posts:

Would’ve left soon my arse. He loves publicity. He was sacked in America and GMT has mega ratings. The only way is down. Maybe he’ll join Andrew Neils channel or some obscure internet channel.

I don't think there's any reason for his behaviour other than the fact he's an absolute bell end.

Question - Susannah always seems to choose the opposite 'side' to Pierce but in a way that doesn't leave me always believing that isn't just an interview tactic. Thoughts? Just can't decide if she's generally reasonable or choosing the opposite of Pierce because that is what she's supposed to do.

I've never understood her jump from BBC. She was much more able to be a journalist there.

Not arses again. It's been wall to wall today. Grin

He seemed bored it was only a matter of time until he left IMO. Maybe he'll do Strictly later in the year?

Anyone read the 8 stage pathway to murder recently?

I'd put Piers at around a 6+ out of 8. He's fucking terrifying.

‘I've never understood her jump from BBC. She was much more able to be a journalist there.’

£100k difference in pay probably.

She's just decoration. Sits next to Piers day in day out like a wet lettuce, complicit in his bullying and bigotry. I'd love a job where I just got to sit tea and smirk all day.

ITV have form for employing 'controversial' twats. Jeremy Clarkson literally punched a crew member because he didn't like the catering then landed the prime time Who Wants To Be A Millionaire job. The more I think about it the more I hate ITV. Schofield and McPartlin are contemptible too.

KarensChoppyBob · 09/03/2021 21:20

God yes Schofield too. Seems to be a pattern on ITV of men of a certain age with their heads lodged firmly up their own arses ( sorry Sparkling ;).

heads up arses
arses on plates
arses handed to people

Make it stop!

'The more I think about it the more I hate ITV. Schofield and McPartlin are contemptible too.'

They do seem to be attempting to be more diverse, loose women has more black presenters now and eamonn was replaced on Friday's TM by Alison Hammond.

I would expect they would appoint someone similarly to replace Morgan. Maybe Charlene White?

As I've said on another thread PM was definitely the architect of his own demise aided brilliantly today by the bloody brilliant Alex Beresford.

I'm sure PM is banging away on his laptop right now spewing his bile for the faithful Daily Fail followers.

This man is no journalist he never listens, never debates and never sees another's point of view.

He is a bully a hypocrite and a coward. He is definitely no loss at all to journalism or TV.
