Top Gear Host Jeremy Clarkson Writes Entire Column Goofing on Piers Morgan's Failures
It's behind a paywall, but you can read him calling Morgan "a ghastly little weasel."
A tabloid, the Mirror, quotes more of Clarkson's piece. Quotes from Clarkson:
"I heard that he was going to be dropped about six months ago.
"And have been sitting here for all of that time, loving his stupid Twitter boasts about his huge fame and lavish lifestyle, knowing that he didn't know what I knew.
"This was a show, remember, that was being aired round the world.
"Billions had the ability to watch it but few did.
"In fact, Morgan attracted a global audience smaller than the BBC daytime show Cash in the Attic.
"He's trying to argue his CNN show failed because the Americans didn't take kindly to his misguided attempt to spark a debate on gun control.
"Nonsense. His show failed because the viewers hated him.
"Everyone hates him.
"And that's a big problem when you are trying to play the fame game.
"You can upset some of the people some of the time and survive - thrive even.
"But if you upset all of the people all of the time, you will fail - and he has.
