Pierce: Elon Musk can do what the head he likes with it. But I admire at least his aspiration to make it more of a balanced town hall, if you like - where people who are constantly being silenced are not all from the same political persuasion. We used to write about this, about the double standards. And I always made the point, it will come back and haunt you. If you try and tamper with free speech and democracy in this way, it will always come back and bite you. He may be public enemy number one now to the work brigade, but I think he's right to take them off.
What’s more toxic: Tabloids or Twitter? Piers Morgan may know – the outsized personality has been an outsized influence in both spheres for decades, since his start as show business editor at Rupert Murdoch’s The Sun.
In this interview, Morgan discusses his rise – and stumbles – and the return to Murdochland, where he now hosts the Fox Nation show, “Piers Morgan Uncensored.” We tackle characters with whom Morgan has beefed — from Donald Trump to Meghan Markle. And Kara asks Morgan, who is famous for stirring up debate, what part of him is authentic and what’s performance. “I think that when expressing my strongly held opinions, there's always a bit of theater to it.”
