If Piers had suddenly made that comment without his history of similar remarks then I would agree that it was detrimental to mental health suffers. But it was just a continuation of what he has been saying for months.

I agree with Rollo from another thread, he said Piers does bring the ratings in and on that one show they beat the BBC for a change. Today their stock price went down.
Piers like him or loathe him brings in the viewers which is what they need to bring in the money.

I like GMB but can't abide Piers Morgan, to me he seems obsessed with Megan both on tv ,social media and in the papers.. The fact that she didn't return his call or call him after she said she would ( his words) does not give him the right to follow her across those media platforms and bad mouthed her.

I think that the statement by Mind the mental health charity sealed his fate with ITV as they have run a massive mental health campaign.
The comments may not have hurt Megan but if one person thought that they would be called a liar for speaking out and didn't get help how sad that would be.

It wasn't so long ago that the message 'Be Kind ' was all over the media after Caroline Flack took her life. It didn't take long to be forgotten did it? :-( :-(

I've never watched Good Morning Britain although I have caught snatches of it from time to time.

Meghan has now said she didn't complain about Piers for herself but for others that are suffering mental health. Sorry, but I find that odd. If it wasn't hurtful then why complain. The comments were about her - not anyone else.

He will probably end up on another channel and carrying on where he left off, I hope not though, I don't know how he has got away with his comments all this time.

I watched it this morning and it was so embarrassing and he also said that he did not believe a word Meghan said such a bully I think he went before he was pushed. I felt sorry for Alex Beredford and dr Hilary

It's seems Piers Morgan can dish it out but can't take it. The presenter Alex Beresford told him a couple of home truths and he didn't like it and left.
There were also thousand of complaints about some of the comments he made about Megan regarding her mental health. The charity Mind raised a complaint about him as well.

I can now watch the programme again on the days he used to be on.
The way he was talking to some American presenters it would seem he has direct knowledge and is privvy to everything that is said by the royals . Big head and loud mouth.

A colleague on GMTV challenged him regarding his nasty comments and he flounced off set for ten minutes.
Ofcom had 41,000 complaints against him from viewers.
Allegedly.

His vendetta against Meghan seems like sour grapes.

I don't know the why's and what for's but it seems to me that he met someone that didn't agree with him or spoke out against him on live tv.

Good

He is so obsessed with hate for Meghan

He met her many moons ago but she didn’t include him in her circle

He thought he would get a wedding invite and access to the inner circle but it didn’t happen and he was so miffed he turned it into hate

His rants bordered on embarrassing

The fact he had finally been challenged is great and seems he has retreated with his tail between his legs

I found him embarrassing bordering on just plain nasty

Is he really leaving or did he just throw his toys out of the pram?
