Piers Morgan Links to Fake News Report to Mock Sarah Palin
Newsbusters ^ | 10/27/13 | Matt Hadro

Posted on 10/27/2013 9:01:27 AM PDT by Nachum

Piers Morgan used a fake news site to mock Sarah Palin on Twitter on Thursday. He linked to the satirical news site The Daily Currant saying that Palin claimed Jesus celebrated Easter.

"And she's back!" Morgan gloated, with absolutely no mention that the article was fake. When critics told him the website was satire, Morgan answered that he knew it was. Yet he praised the notion that it was believable.

"That's the beauty of it," Morgan wrote when someone tweeted that it was "hilarious even if its fake. Why? I believed it."

That wasn't the first time Morgan has derided Palin. He laughed when comedian Lewis Black dismissed Palin as a "fictional character" and responded that "You couldn't invent someone like Sarah Palin, could you?"

She detected an ambush and avoided it.

How is that stupid?

If liberals suddenly couldn’t lie, we would still have plenty to mock them with while they would be completely disarmed.

Piers needs to take his “light in the loafers” freak show back to the United Kingdom. He’s not an American. Americans should not shive a git what he thinks and says.

That’s a good question. And why do we need them here? Don’t we have Americans that can do this job?

I read somewhere that Piers Morgan is very fond of Gerbals.

Was it written as revelation or confirmation?

Piers got a “genius” Green Card so he could work in the USA. Who knew we had a shortage of prattling fools on TV?

Entertainers, artists and models are not subject to immigration limits, and are encouraged, as a matter of law and policy, to work in the US.

Its no surprise, considering who's giving out the green cards these days.

That this someone and Piers Morgan believed the story doesn't make it hilarious. That they believed it makes them laughable.

Didn’t Piers Morgan get run out of British TV and Britain for ethical lapses?

Something has caused the war between Jeremy Clarkson and Muskets Morgan to flare up again. Clarkson has been slamming Morgan hard all morning.

Piers claims his show gets 500m viewers. Hahahahahaha. It's 110,000 on good day. About 380m behind Top Gear.

Piers. Let's finish it with this. Your show attracts a global audience less than Cash in the Attic. That's why you're going to be sacked.

Americans. Don't trust Piers Morgan. He knows how to hack your phone and will f**k up your army for a buck.

What a monumental tw*t this man is. I cannot wait for the day he goes to prison.

I'm going to bed now, happy at the news from CNN insiders that Piers Morgan will soon be sacked.
