Piers Morgan stormed off his own TV show in a row over Meghan Markle – 9 crushing takedowns
Piers Morgan has no time for ‘snowflakes’ who can’t handle criticism so who knows what he’ll make of this guy who stormed off his own breakfast TV show after he was taken to task by a fellow presenter.
Oh, it’s Piers Morgan.
ALEX BERESFORD HAS MADE PIERS MORGAN WALK “FROM HIS OWN SHOW!” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Morgan, you’ll remember, was fiercely critical of Meghan Markle after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s tell-all Oprah Winfrey interview.
He walked off Good Morning Britain today after he was brilliantly called out by fellow presenter Alex Beresford for his behaviour towards the Duchess of Sussex.
Beresford said Morgan’s behaviour was ‘pathetic’ and ‘diabolical’. Morgan later accused Beresford of ‘abuse’ and said he had ‘launched into a pretty personal derogatory monologue’.
Here’s a longer clip of what Beresford had to say so you can decide for yourself.

There’d been a bit of an atmosphere on the programme from the start.
Piers had only been hosting for <10 minutes but the atmosphere in the GMB studio is palpable pic.twitter.com/zciBTHSjzV

And here are just some of the things people said about the whole thing today.
1.
Hi I’m Piers Morgan. You may remember me from years of publicly abusing Meghan Markle then inviting her dad on my show the day after she said she’d been made to feel suicidal by the media. Today I’ll be pissing my pants and running away because of mild criticism.

Man who insists on right to attack Meghan Markle even when she’s admitted suicidal thoughts furious at first hint of criticism of himself. pic.twitter.com/xPXRtzssEb

Watching Piers Morgan have a shit fit and storm off GMB in response to a reasonable critique of his actions encapsulates a certain type of right-wing white man who screams loudly about the 'triggered snowflake left' but actually has more papery-thin skin than a lizard's arsehole

Piers Morgan stropping out of his own show this morning because of a resentment-fuelled meltdown about the royal family is weirdly and pathetically symbolic of where we’re at as a nation right now.

Men like Piers Morgan can't handle criticism. His colleague made one comment about his behaviour and he flew off the handle. But he expects Meghan Markle to take his relentless bullying on the chin and without complaint. https://t.co/WSxfkUvkoV

And here’s what he had to say about it later.
Agreed. I was annoyed, went for a little cool-down, and came back to finish the discussion. https://t.co/UzPWYkdmeE

To conclude …
It's official – Piers Morgan is a snowflake https://t.co/l1pv3dSpAX

Oh, and this.
You’re all laughing, but if we’re following the American hell curve correctly, Piers Morgan is 7 years away from being Prime Minister.

Don’t have nightmares.
