Yes and no. I agree with your general sentiment, but at the same time, they teach you these things day one of your first day of class. "ALWAYS assume your mic is hot" is a common phrase. And all that hard work and time and training that you put into being a public professional you should automatically want to be more careful with mics attached to your body and cameras pointed at you. The bosses are now left with a choice.... is this really the person who should be our public face going forward? Somebody who has gotten too comfortable or relaxed into forgetting to remain professional?

Piers Morgan has never been taken seriously. By anyone.

[@paulapuckett-potoczak7735]

I disagree

[@syvadcram]

Up to about 7-8 years ago I agree he was an insufferable liberal, but actually he has since then normalized to a large degree

[@misssassydudds]

What utter bullshit he was proven to be correct as #MeghanMarkleIsALiar and has proven to be time and time again! Just to clarify how Illinformed you are may I suggest you read the following read it and weep! Piers Morgan’s audience tends to be quite broad, spanning various demographics, but there are key characteristics worth noting for both his work on Sky News and his show “Piers Morgan Uncensored.” 1. Political Viewpoints: • Conservative-leaning viewers tend to make up a significant portion of Piers Morgan’s audience, especially in the UK and the US. He appeals to those who prefer a more direct, often confrontational style of political debate. He has been outspoken on issues like free speech, cancel culture, and political correctness, which resonate with conservative viewers. • However, he’s also drawn in moderate or even liberal viewers at times because he can be unpredictable and is not strictly partisan, taking strong stances on issues like gun control in the US and criticising both left and right when it suits him. 2. International Audience: • His audience is international, with a strong base in both the UK and the US. His time as a host on CNN’s “Piers Morgan Live” gave him significant visibility in the US, and since then, his outspoken style has continued to appeal to American audiences, particularly on social media platforms. • In the UK, Sky News is one of the most-watched news outlets, and his association with the network increases his credibility with traditional British news viewers. 3. Viewership Age: • Middle-aged and older viewers are more likely to follow him consistently, as his style and the issues he covers often align with the concerns of those groups. • Younger viewers may engage with his content on social media platforms, where clips of his interviews or controversial opinions tend to go viral. However, his primary base is not necessarily the younger generation. 4. Viewership on Specific Topics: • He has gained traction on hot-button topics like the Meghan Markle controversy, cancel culture, and COVID-19, particularly his vocal criticism of the government’s handling of the pandemic. These topics pull in viewers who are passionate about social and political issues, regardless of political alignment. 5. Social Media Influence: • Piers Morgan has a strong social media following across platforms like Twitter, where he is very active. His Twitter audience is a mix of supporters and critics, but his confrontational and unfiltered tweets keep him trending and in the spotlight, reaching people who may not watch his full shows but are still influenced by his opinions and debates. In Summary: • Political conservatives, middle-aged/older demographics, and international viewers (especially from the UK and US) form the bulk of his audience. • His shows also attract viewers who enjoy debate-style journalism and are drawn to topics like freedom of speech, celebrity controversies, and cultural wars. It’s safe to say, while controversial, Piers Morgan knows how to keep his audience engaged! So shove that where the sun don't shine!

Regarding Piers Morgan: 1, I wish non-Brits would learn to pronounce his name correctly (it’s Piers as in multiple piers, not pierce) and 2) he may have lost his GMB job but it’s not as simple as quitting or as simple as a firing - ITV asked him to apologize publicly or else and he refused to apologize so it was kind of a mutual impasse. And his career is most certainly not destroyed. He’s doing quite well, actually. 3, The Alex he’s arguing with in this clip isn’t a co-host, he’s the weather guy. It was Piers’ idea to have Alex seated at the desk for the discussion bc Alex is biracial and Piers thought Alex’s perspective would add a unique perspective and insight to the discussion. And BTW? I wish Whoopi Goldberg was on this list. She got a second chance after her ignorant comments about the Holocaust on The View yet ppl who have said or done way worse things on air have gotten cancelled. Bill Maher was not destroyed- in fact, he rebounded incredibly well and what he said about 9/11 is almost quaint compared to WG’s stance on WWII.

[@nicolelawrence7722]

I agree. I didn't get why he caught the majority of that flack too. I know NBC had made a series of mistakes they were trying to clean up. They moved Billy Bush to the Today Show to replace Natalie Morales (who took over for him at Access Hollywood). There was something going on with her and Matt Laurer, but Matt's real issues hadn't been uncovered yet.

[@pandaking9276]

Bush got less backlash. Plain and simple. I have heard few people talk about what he did. Mr. bush also portrayed himself as a family man. Which clearly he was not, so he was a very fake person.

@pandaking9276 How did Bush get less backlash when it was NBC, Donald Trump and Billy Bush in the room?

It was just after the summer Olympics and all the channels were supposed to have live interviews the local medal winners after they got off their plane. The reporter was somehow unable to get inside and so she could only ad lib live on air outside the airport while, if you flipped to the other two stations, they were live inside and chatting with the olympians.

Ok Natasha Exelby has to be the biggest BS. Ever. I understand it was freelance… but that’s so far from a fireable/ non renew offense they were litterally just looking for a reason smh.

[@nothingmusic42]

Jim Cornette has one of the most successful wrestling podcasts, and god is it hilarious listening to him go on rants. he's like the anti-Joe Rogan. even if i don't agree with him all the time, Uncle Corny never fails to make me laugh.

[@FosterWolf]

I can't believe you missed Thom Brennamen during the Cincinnati Reds/San Francisco Giants game, where he referred to San Francisco as "f-- town" on air. He was fired MID-GAME.

[@tlw1950]

Sorry, but if everything people say in private were leaked or revealed, everybody would be canceled.

[@nottodayimbusy7146]

I'm not sure that's true but what set in private should be kept private in my opinion

[@clairedisapia]

Piers Morgan was right and I hope that show got cancelled

[@Kjos_jax]

Chris Harrison always looked like a kid in daddy's suit

[@finch45lear]

Piers Morgan really suffered for not taking crap from a weatherman.

[@TheRell321]

The Jim Cornette comment has been used since the 1980s, albeit with different countries mentioned. While some individuals have made disparaging remarks, it is important to recognize that those who do not comprehend wrestling or its industry should refrain from criticizing the individuals who work in it while simultaneously working themselves.

[@DerekScottBland]

Dude, Cornette is a racist, or at the very least still thinks that racism is ok if it gets him heat with the audience.

[@Rattenhoofd]

You say "those who do not comprehend wrestling" like you're talking about French poetry.

[@DerekScottBland]

I understand wrestling very well, and I understand Cornette very well. The man is a vile racist and homophobe, and doesn't have any problem saying disgusting things like this and then trying to hide it by saying it's just part of his character. Even if that were true, that's cheap heat and unacceptable today.

[@pearlsaremybestfriend]

Morgan act up on tv was an example of Him being so invested in feeling he forgot his common sense. and Him supporting Osbourne was not surprising .

[@RDan1982]

Piers Morgan seems to be doing fine

[@pauledunn]

If there's no forgiveness, why apologize, reflect, and change? These haters make things worse.

[@yaya_97]

It’s up to people who were affected to choose forgiveness and they shouldn’t have to. If you apologize and don’t reflect and change your behavior than that shows you didn’t mean your apology. Apologies are to showcase your remorse and commitment to growth.

[@Tori.601]

Trying to save rep/ get another job 🤷‍♀️

[@brianarbenz1329]

I remember the Howard Cosell remark, and it did _not_ lead to his downfall. Black athletes all over accepted that the remark was not racial. The whole thing was a non-incident, and his career went on unscathed for many more years. That does not belong in this list.

[@HeavyMetalBluegrass]

Billy Bush should never have been fired. He was off-air and pandering to his guest by laughing at DT's sophomoric comments.

[@donrobertson4940]

He's fine. He's on some other show syndicated through Fox.

[@karlcrouch2641]

A number of these have gone on to bigger and better because fair-minded people recognize the insidiousness of the cancellation of a whole career over simple and often overblown mistakes.

[@parakeet8157]

They had a disclaimer saying "Jimmy the Greek's" views were his own.

[@susangraham6801]

I'm hella confused. So you mean to tell me, a man can literally be fired for LAUGHING at someone else's comments and yet the person who actually made the comments can not only be elected president, but is currently running again. Make that make sense to me. Edit: Correction.....he won😒

[@nottodayimbusy7146]

Yep

[@chinahepcat]

Piers Morgan is fine on KZbin and Fox News.

[@GregHuffman1987]

I didnt expect Jim Cornette to be on here. Haha. I love his podcast

[@tlw1950]

I love many of these people!

[@Panda4pres]

Kelly Osbourne should've been #1

[@gvss4]

Pierce Morgan is a legend

[@DaveFromBrooklyn]

5:10 - Jim Coronette’s career was far from ruined. He has been doing quite well. It sounds like Turner/NWA/WCW pussed out; Cornette was doing the right thing by playing Heel; the irony being, Jim Cornette is a flaming progressive. And if you think that was bad, do a search on New Jack OJ, Cornette literally wrote the script

[@christophereskridge1]

Jim and new jack was friends

[@Animeguy300]

Their videos keep getting awesome

[@StanHalen1936]

[@AndreaDoesYoga]

😲Wow, some hosts really should've stayed silent!🎙️

[@thedecaycafe]

I like how the thing that causes so many family’s heartache and trauma seems so funny.

[@bluethunder7391]

To me Brian Williams was the most sad of all, since he was always very serious and believable on his presentations. I guess everyone can fall into the hype game.

[@davidgreenfield6423]

Uh piers Morgan has his own show now. I think it’s pretty popular.

[@jAWNthejAWN]

If "news" hosts reported the news and didn't speculate it, some of them would still have jobs.

[@maymey]

Chris Harrison's situation was a JOKE! He was absolutely right. We can't judge actions in the past by today's standards. If so, we'd ALL be screwed! Every one of us.
