Subject: Piers Morgan/Larry King

Posted by: shipyardbernie
Date: Dec 31 10

I would like to apologize in advance to our American cousins for having Piers Morgan thrust upon you and taking over the Larry King show. Morgan used to be a news paper editor and then somehow became a celebritie. He is one of the most disliked people in the UK along with Tony Blair and Peter Mandelson. What I would like to know is, who gave him the job and is there no one in the US that could have done it?

Thanks Bernie - lesser or least of other evils?

We'd be happy to keep 'mean old' Simon Cowell here in the States.....just as long as you keep a good tight hold on 'The Hoff'! IMHO, that's a fair trade.

It's really a no-brainer turbotude. Just send David Hasselhoff to Germany and find someone new. :^)

I disagree, I find Piers Morgan refreshing. He speaks his mind not just what political thoughts are currently in vogue.
It is not true that he is disliked by us all here in the UK.

Piers Morgan has a mind? If that's true, why doesn't he use it?

I think it's because he'd have to stop talking for a moment to use it.

I have seen interviews done but both men in the past but on a limited basis. I found that Larry King was more polite and less intrusive and a little more interested in good memories from the past. Morgan in my opinion was often rude and had no problem diggibg up whatever dirt he could find. Also Piers Morgan attacked some celebs in interviews but was nice to his friends so he showed bias which is unprofessional especially for an interviewer.

Larry King was the better of the two.

Wow. Old thread.
Larry King was awful. Anyone would have been an improvement.
Larry had Elaine Page as a guest one night but clearly didn't know who she was or anything about her. He brought up Susan Boyle mentioning her. When Page acknowledged it King followed up with "Her endorsement will probably help you get work." Uh... right.

Oddly enough, no one has mentioned Harry and Meghan? Does that mean we all wish they would disappear?
