No big surprise that Piers is a jerk. I understand that he is claiming to be a citizen of the US. I don't believe that is true.

OK, he's full of lies and ********. Fits right in with most of the American media.

People like him and others in the media - what the devil motivates these kinds of scum? As if I didn't already despise him enough, now it appears he's not only capable of this type of thing, but he's completely unrepentant to boot.
Hilary Clinton - look, I don't wish a blood clot on her, I just want her to open her eyes.
But Morgan? Drive off a cliff, you SOB. Crash and burn.

Morgan was hired because he was the exact opposite in style to Larry King. He was in the right place at the right time for the position. He knew, and/or was known, by the powers that were looking for King's replacement.
