I suspect nobody, including liberals likes to hear some jumped up Brit talk US politics on a US News show.

Piers Morgan is the reason why libs and progs can't be taken seriously.

As shown, Top Gear presenter Jeremy Clarkson (who is the antithesis of Piers Morgan and punched him) reminds me of why I still have sanity for this world.

So, in your view violence is more sane than expressing your opinions verbally?

No, I do not watch Morgan and his anti-gun rants.

Um no, and he didn't exactly punch him for that reason.

Piers Morgan owns a part share in a pub on Earls Court Road in Kensington, London called 'The Hansom Cab', it's run by his brother Rupert Morgan an Ex-British Army Officer. Although Morgan is often seen as quintessential Englishman by many Americans, his farther was actually an Irish Dentist from County Offaly who died when Piers was very young, whilst his mother Gabrielle was one of the Irish clan of Cantophers. Piers original name being Piers Stefan O'Meara and he even describes himself as Irish in his newspaper columns. In terms of his education, he attended a state comprehensive in East Sussex, followed by a local College where he studied journalism, hardly a grand education, and as consequence supports the political left in the shape if the Labour Party.

What I don't understand is- why is he still on air?
Any TV show in the US that pulls in such retched numbers would've been cancelled a long time ago.
Yet CNN insists on sticking with a loser. The same could be said of B.S.NBC. They must love low ratings and being irrelevant.
What's the reason for this? Is it because they are cable stations?

I liked Piers Morgan when he was sitting with Alex Jones in his show.
