Piers Morgan slams CNN for cancelling his interview after he criticized them for not covering the Hunter Biden story because they fear ‘they might lose the Democrats the election’ if they did

Piers Morgan has slammed CNN for canceling his interview with the network after he said they and other American news outlets were being biased for not covering a story about a laptop allegedly belonging to Hunter Biden.

During an appearance on Fox & Friends on Friday morning, Morgan was played clips of journalists, including CNN's Jake Tapper, dismissing the allegations as false.

In turn, the DailyMail.com editor-at-large said journalists in the US were being 'hyper-partisan' for failing to report on or investigate the story.

Hours later, Morgan confirmed that his promoting appearance for his new book Wake Up on CNN's Reliable Sources, which was set to air on Sunday, would no longer occur.

'Last time I appeared on this show, I appeared after I wrote a series of negative Trump columns,' he told DailyMail.com.

'They were prepared to take me when I was negative, but not so much when I would be slightly more positive.'

He added that he believes most media outlets have likely not investigated the story because, if they do, it could lead to revelations that would cause the Democrats to lose the presidential election.

Morgan told DailyMail.com that CNN spent at least a month asking him to appear on the show.

He said he had a 'weird feeling' his appearance might be canceled, but he was still very surprised by the move.

'Maybe they were worried I wouldn't bash Trump as they wanted, and that's what my book itself is all about - illiberal liberals who want to cancel anybody who doesn't suit their agenda,' he said.

Morgan said producers at CNN also told him that he was canceled because they reportedly were able to book someone else: the executive editor of The Associated Press.

Time has been aging Piers Morgan well. He used to be super left wing and would never criticize the left. At least now he’s ready to call someone out regardless of affiliation.

This is my shocked face.

Well, he gets it right some of the time. When he backtracks on his 2nd Amendment views, I may consider listening to him....

Morgan would be okay for a journo if he wasn’t such a faggot on gun control.

Cannot have a rational discussion about FACTS anymore - just an admission that the FACTS do not support their cause. . . .

Journalists are not supposed to have a cause, anyway. Very few real “journalists” left in the media anymore.

Oh yes. The executive editor of the Associated Press will pull in a lot more viewers than Piers Morgan.

I still love that segment on his old show when he clashed with Ted Nugent on guns and Ted tore him up.

Is he really having that much trouble figuring out what’s going on at CNN?
It’s really quite obvious isn’t it?

I was so impressed by this video that I transcribed the below:

If you wanted a true FARA case, a foreign agents registry case, a criminal case, what Hunter Biden and the Biden family actually did is a much more legit FARA case, than what they brought against Paul Manafort, or what they brought against people connected to Flynn.

It tells you again, they’re doing what they are accusing others of. And listen to what they accuse others of, and listen to what they accuse others of, because they’re almost always confessing. Reverse it, and you’ll get a confession, and you’ll know where to look.-——

Now, the bigger backstory is, Joe Biden comes from the old school Democratic political machine. So when BA got nominated and won, he did not come from a political machine. He had strong ties to what you can call the intelligence apparatus, there were connections to that...there’s a reason why he goes from a low level student at Occidental College to a prestigious graduate of Colombia University with ties to very unique foundations and institutions in NY. So if you track and trace some of those people, you’ll find some other connections.

But where he Barrack Obama...

(Hear the rest of this brilliant analysis at the YouTube link. I just ran out of time to transcribe it. I’ll finish it later on.)

From the video “Hunter Biden - Law of the Laptop EXPLAINED - Viva Frei & Rob Barnes”

Two brilliant lawdogs, but more so Rob Barnes.
Listen to every word of this BRILLIANCE. You will be glad you did.

Hunter Biden - Law of the Laptop EXPLAINED - Viva & Barnes HIGHLIGHT
“PROJECTION IS CONFESSION” (Rob Barnes)
This is by FAR the MOST BRILLIANT analysis of how modern corruption works that I have ever heard. Lawdog Viva Frei is very smart, but Rob Barnes is BRILLIANT.
If you want to understand today’s modern politics, PLS WATCH THIS VIDEO.
At least watch it from 10 minutes on.
I am not easily impressed by lawyers. BARNES IS A LEGAL / POLITICAL GENIUS, IMHO.
