Rupert Murdoch is one of the great media titans of my lifetime. He never told me what to put in the paper, he might give an opinion after I'd published something if he agreed or disagreed but he didn't ever try and force his views into the paper. So I thoroughly enjoy working for him. That said, some of the stuff he's presided over,. I also have a problem with, right?
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.”
