After five years as the co-host of Good Morning Britain, a talk show that found itself straddling a strange tonal line between BBC and Fox News, Morgan was no more.
“Following discussions with ITV, Piers Morgan has decided now is the time to leave Good Morning Britain,” the broadcaster said in a scant statement.
However things pan out, any British progressive should ready themselves for an inevitable truth: the British outrage industry is ramping up.
His actual departure, however, was a much more contentious, viral and splashy affair – in other words, much more Morgan.
