Piers Morgan writes about Meghan Markle debacle, rails against cancel culture, 'woke brigade'
Fox News
Piers Morgan is railing against cancel culture and "woke" liberals in a lengthy account appearing in the U.K.'s "Mail on Sunday" newspaper.
The piece, which appeared online in the U.S. on Saturday night, gave a moment-by-moment account of what led to his departure from "GMB." "For Harry to publicly shred his family and the Monarchy like this ... is so out of character for a man who once bravely served his Queen and country in war." "It appears that questioning Meghan's fork-tongued 'truth' is now a racist hate crime." "Sadly, this is where we've now arrived in society: the truth can be whatever someone decides it is." "And even if I did apologise, that wouldn't be the end of it. The woke brigade would keep coming for me, demanding I apologise for everything else they find offensive – which of course, is absolutely everything." "My problem is with the increasingly insidious woke cancel culture ... If allowed to continue unchecked, it will make it virtually impossible for anyone with an opinionated personality to survive in any workplace." "It's time to cancel the cancel culture before it kills our culture." "I expected such disingenuous, self-serving wrecking-ball stuff from a social-climbing Hollywood actress like Ms Markle, but for Harry to publicly shred his family and the Monarchy like this, while Prince Philip was seriously ill in hospital, is so out of character for a man who once bravely served his Queen and country in war," Morgan said at the beginning of his column, adding that when he went on the air later that morning after watching the interview he was "angry to the point of boiling over."More Related News
