I’m glad someone finally said it! Thank you, Jill! 👏👏👏 Piers Morgan is NOT a good faith actor! He doesn’t care about any of the people on either side who have lost their lives, family, friends, neighbors, pets, homes, etc. he just wants to make bank! 🏦 He is a slightly classier version of Jerry Springer essentially. That’s an apt comparison for sure! His show doesn’t lead to constructive dialogue or helping viewers gain a better understanding of the war or the conflict it’s all about the juicy drama. Also, why doesn’t he bring on people who are actually experts on the topic like historians, scholars, military strategists, intellectuals, etc. Why do I care what some random YouTuber or Andrew Tate thinks about the war? Call me crazy but I don’t turn on my computer and go to Pier’s channel because I’m dying to know what Cenk Uygur thinks about Gaza. Nor do I wake up every morning wondering what Owen Jones’ take on the IDF’s latest military campaign is. Also, these debates need to be structured, with time limits, set topics agreed to by both sides, civility and politeness maintained, no interruptions allowed, and both individuals must be qualified to participate. For instance, I’d love to see Noa Tishby and Daniel Gordis debate Norman Finkelstein and Shlomo Sand. Benny Morris facing off with Rashid Khalidi would be fascinating as well. How about Ilan Pappe squaring off with Einat Wilf? Now those would be real interesting debates! Sadly, I don’t think will ever get to see something like that.
You mean....you don't consider Owen Jones an authority on Gaza?! BLASPHEMY! Cenk is also a complete dumbfuck when it comes to this topic, which is a shame because I used to like the Young Turks. How far they've fallen now.
Any one of the guest combinations you suggested, I would pay to see. Problem is that the ones you pointed out don't have large enough social media followings OR they have been asked to participate on the show and have declined. I would love to see a Piers debate on Israel/Palestine where ALL of the participants are either Israeli or Palestinian. Is that too much to ask?
Francesca Albanese is utterly appalling
She's an "as a European." ;)
