Piers Morgan out - there *is* a God!

I am not normally one to indulge in schadenfreude, (delight in the
misfortunes of others), but in this particular case I will make an
exception.

Good riddance, you arsehole!

 

He'll be popping up elsewhere though, you can be certain that another
paper will be wanting somebody like him - The Sport maybe? ;-)

That or he'll be the next permanent HIGNFY host!

 

Praps some ministers of the gubbermint will take note and do
likewise.

Nah, that'll never happen.

Nice one, that's made my evening anyway!

 

Probably that jungle 'celebrity' thing

 

Andy Hewitt secured a place in history by writing:

....and I wonder how many people had no strong opinions about PM until he
appeared on HIGNFY....

Arrogant, odious, intellectually-challenged, snivelling little shit. I
couldn't have had a better start to the weekend

 

As far as PM goes, no, however........

........ that applies to all journalists in the gutter press IMHO.

 

Don't patronise (talk down to) me Mr. Sterry!! ;-)

He was an idiot not to have investigated the possibility of the photos being
fakes before publishing them but I don't think even he would have published
them knowing them to be fakes or of dubious origin given the obvious
ramifications of getting so hideously wrong.

 

*waves*

 

Who knows, but "deeply regrets the reputational damage done"?
I hope the new editor will be resigning toot-sweet...

 

So-rry! I like to show that I listen to Radio 4 now and then. ;-)

Whether he showed maliciousness, or (much more likely) an appalling lack of
judgment and professionalism, is academic to me - he's gone, and that's all
that counts.

Remember one of his recent appearances on "Have I Got News For You" when he
said something like "Oh, c'mon, Hislop, don't play the popularity card with
me", and was promptly humiliated by Paul Merton and the studio audience, who
cheered for Hislop? A smarter man would have started to get the message,
namely that he was a complete and utter arrogant twat, but oh no, not our
Morgan. Well, maybe he is starting to get it now, but then again, maybe not.

Now if tonight's episode had been live... It won't have the same effect
7 days later.

 

You're not 'gutter' though are y......... hmmmmmmm! ;-)

 

Yes, I must admit tonights show seemed a bit lacking as we all knew the
latest news was missing.

However, Sir Gambon was class.

 

He's an absolute genius.

 

He does, indeed, appear to be an utter wanker

Yeah, but then I always have a little hero worship for the 'old school'
actors, they just seem to have a prescence that younger actors are
lacking nowadays.

 

Ok, sweepstake on how long it takes him to come out with a bleating
self-serving book about how hard done by he's been...

3 months?

 

You're not 'gutter' though are y......... hmmmmmmmm!

Oh, I don't know. They have their attractions. Bloom, Pitt and Bana
scantily clad? Even Germaine Greer was struggling to hold it together
whilst reviewing Troy on Newsnight Review.

Although, I can't see Brad Pitt engaging me as a sextagenarian in the same
way that Ustinov, Gambon et al manage(d).
