champers Posted March 11, 2021 Posted March 11, 2021 (edited) Regardless of whether you agree with his point of view, he has become uber excessive in his constant vitriol and bile towards Meghan Markle. I describe it as stalking and he is hiding behind the fact that he is a "meeja star" exercising his right to free speech, rather than an unhinged stalker or troll. He got in a similar lather with his constant denouncements of then Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger. In between his on-air hissy fit and his subsequent departure, he was interviewed on the Fox and Friends breakfast show in the US. The 3 hosts were urging him to return to the States and he wasn't rebutting the notion, so expect him back there any time soon. Fox have an early evening op-ed slot vacant as warm up for Tucker Carlson. See him there is my guess. Edited March 11, 2021 by champers 1
Popular Post spidermike007 Posted March 11, 2021 Popular Post Posted March 11, 2021 He is a tired and fading man, with a very outdated and colonial point of view. This is 2021. Some cannot grasp the massive change in society. There are still alot of haters out there and alot of racists. However, there are more and more people who are embracing the colors within society. For me, dark is amazing. It is something to be embraced. White is boring. We are becoming more mixed all the time. And that is a good thing. And I cannot be labeled racist, as I say this as a white man. One willing to confront the massive shortcomings of my race. 1 2 2 4

He was hired for this, and many other posts because he was opinionated. I don't much like him but he was right about free speech. I wonder whether the fellow he clashed with and caused him to walk out (I believe he was the weatherman?) Will appear in Morgan's chair once the dust has settled - at a casual glance he seems to tick so many "woke boxes"! He walked off because he had no answer to a cogent argument made by the weatherman, just like Trump, a big baby when confronted, just like most bullies. 4 1 1 2

Actually believing that one race or colour is amazing and another race or colour is boring is pretty much the definition of racism. If you reversed the words black and white in your post and re-read it then you will see that. The only difference is that by reversing the words it would then probably be classified as internalized racism. Why not just accept that the colour of someone's skin is irrelevant to how amazing they are? It's the content of the character that makes someone amazing or boring. 18 2

In this case Reuters intention was to discredit Morgan. Personally, I agreed with him, 100%. But I'm not woke... However, I am anti-racist. What did woke mean? Seen it a few times recently

Its not in the PMs power to intercede in what is a family matter. Frankly, I think Harry and Megan are okay and just rebelling against an outdated set of historical polices, procedures and attitudes that belong in Victorian times, not in this Century. I like the Queen and Phil, I can just about cope with Charles and William seems to be shaping up okay, the rest are a waste of oxygen and need to be cleaved off from the Royal family. Good on Harry that he got away, give it to the man Harry. 1 1

Proboscis Posted March 11, 2021 Posted March 11, 2021 4 hours ago, robertson468 said: Normally I find Morgan's strong attitude and expressed views unpalatable, however, in broad terms I agee with him. Several statements Harry and Megan have made make me cringe. He said all that he had when he left UK was what he had inherited from his Mother. What he failed to say was that that amounted to over £10 million, that it was topped up by a further £4 million and that she has about £3.5 million. Poor didums them - so broke! She also complained that someone mentioned their son may have evidence of colour in him. Well, hello, Granny is definately coloured and presumaby his Mummy has some in her DNA and what is wrong with that? Are they ashamed that the Boy might have a smidgen of colour evident, instead of being proud of his heritage. I also cannot help but think that Harry was a highly popular and successful young Army Officer - sure he got up to high jinks, but don't all young people to one degree or another? But along comes this Actress and all of a suddent Harry changes and anyone who is anyone dares to criticise them is the Devil Incarnate. They say they want privacy and to be left alone by the Media, so what do they do. They go on not one, but two of America's most popular shows to complain about how badly they have been done by. They also expect free protection services, paid by the UK tax payer and their little boy to be appointed a Prince forthwith. It was their decision to leave UK, so Protection is your responsibility and as for the Boy becoming a Prince, there is a protocol for that to happen and he is no where near the age to be appointed a Prince, which Harry knows well! As for some of the American Wokes and I include Biden in that, saying how brave they are is unbelievable and I believe that our Prime Minister should not arrange for him and his Wife to be fetted at the Palace by the Queen when they come to the UK, due to his insulting comment about our Royal Family. It makes me so glad that years and years ago I decided to be a republican (in the sense that I don't agree with monarchy). That said, what the British tabloids and Morgan have done is make me feel sorry for Meghan and Harry. Had they stopped writing about them, we would all have forgotten about them. 1
