Some petulant people seem not able to endure criticism. As they consider themselves on a higher plane than mere mortals, they view any deviance from their line as morally unacceptable and worthy of self pity in order to gain victim points from their gullible supporters. Their presence in the public eye is an affront to reason and adult judgment. Oh yes, then there’s the whole Meghan-Morgan thing.

FNC: “Meghan Markle filed a formal complaint with British broadcaster ITV following Piers Morgan’s critical comments about her, according to multiple newspapers. The Guardian and The Telegraph both reported a formal complaint was lodged with ITV on behalf of the Duchess of Sussex after Monday’s edition of ‘Good Morning Britain’ when Morgan questioned whether Markle was being truthful in her bombshell interview Sunday with Oprah Winfrey.”

“We’re not commenting on this,” said an ITV spox. Soon after, when Morgan would not bend the knee, this was the situation. “Following discussions with ITV, Piers Morgan has decided now is the time to leave Good Morning Britain,” ITV said in a statement Tuesday. “ITV has accepted this decision and has nothing further to add.”

Morgan himself has courageously stuck to his guns. “On Monday, I said I didn’t believe Meghan Markle in her Oprah interview,” Morgan tweeted. “I’ve had time to reflect on this opinion, and I still don’t. If you did, OK. Freedom of speech is a hill I’m happy to die on. Thanks for all the love, and hate. I’m off to spend more times with my opinions.”

He posted the message attached to a picture of Winston Churchill with the quote, “Some people’s idea of [free speech] is that they are free to say what they like, but if anyone says anything back, that is an outrage.”

Morgan tweeted on Wednesday, “BREAKING NEWS: Good Morning Britain beat BBC Breakfast in the ratings yesterday for the first time. My work is done.”

The Palace, intelligently refusing to take the Markle bait, bombed the slow witted Prince and his scheming wife with false sympathy. “The whole family is saddened to learn the full extent of how challenging the last few years have been for Harry and Meghan. The issues raised, particularly that of race, are concerning.  While some recollections may vary, they are taken very seriously and will be addressed by the family privately.” Well played.
