I watched a bit of the Jeremy Kyle show earlier and it was pretty dire. He was predicted that Keir Starmer would eventually get a fixed penalty fine and this would 'level up the field with Boris Johnson'. Thankfully his fellow host pointed out that it was very unlikely that this would happen.

Kyle doesn't appear to realise that if the police in Durham can be pressured into reopening the Starmer case then eventually similar pressure could be put on the Met to issue further fines to Boris Johnson.

How the fuck is disgraced former broadcaster Jeremy Kyle anywhere near the pointy end of a television camera.

Because he now falls into the bitter and twisted “if it hadn’t been for the woke mob I’d still have the thicko’s worshipping me” brigade

Tonight Tom Newton-Dunne has hosted a discussion show about sexism and misogyny in Westminster. This is the same Tom Newton Dunne who has a long track record of being a work place bully including bullying a female member of staff in parliament who he accused of overcharging him for a banana.

Amusing when Trump even slags off Talk TV.

Amusing when Trump even slags off Talk TV.

Nice of him to give it some time considering his audience have no idea who Piers Morgan is.

[Oboogie]

Morgan hosted a US chat show for a number of years plus he interviewed Trump only a week or two ago, I expect many of Trump's followers will know who he is.

'ccording to Guido Fawkes (so a large pinch of salt to be taken), Morgan's show yesterday evening had a peak audience of 75.8k viewers, beaten by Wootton later in the evening on KGBN which peaked at 79.7k.

Meanwhile, preceding Morgan's show, Tom Newtown-Dunn's "The News Desk" scored an average viewership of 3.6k viewers!

Usual KGBN heads and fanbois are trumpeting around at anyone who'll listen on getting rating "wins", but they're essentially like the drunk slob coming out of a pub howling at his mate for throwing up & not keeping his drink down while having already shat his own trousers.

My "like", by the way, is largely for the metaphor at the end and not merely for the dedicated research.

Nice to see Murdoch’s attempt at GB News is exactly as popular as GB News, and Morgan is tanking

I would've thought that the "silent majority" would swarm to these channels in droves.

[Malcolm Armsteen]

They might. Fox News has the best figures for non-broadcast news in the USA. They started small and the Withered Gonad has deep pockets.

[Cyclist]

I think, in the UK, the "silent majority" have flocked to these channels, and this just shows how few they actually are.

[mattomac]

It probably requires a political shift in this country like a second term Labour government, their news is simply not getting the airing it wanted as surprise surprise twitter isn’t a useful weathervane for politics.

So much spinning by Morgan & Co in that report that they should be hooked up to a turbine, which in turn should be hooked up to the National Grid, which in turn would lower electricity prices and might actually make Morgan popular.

[MisterMuncher]

So would burning him in a coal fired power station, though.

Piers Morgan has over 7 million followers on Twitter yet only 70,000 of these followers can be arsed to tune into his programme on Talk TV. I wonder how many of his Twitter followers are really, or has he bought most on them on the Internet?

You know how people slow down passing a car crash?

There you are. Quantity =/= quality.
