Pierce Morgan won Celebrity Apprentice in 2008, which I watched. He also hosted America's Got Talent and had a CNN show between 2011-2014. These days he's obsessed with Meghan Markle and this new Harry and Meghan docu-series on Netflix,. And number one in the UK, though, every British person I have asked if they're watching it says, of course not, I'm English.
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.”
