PaddockLad 20151 Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 Does anyone inhabit or even recognise the world Morgan is portraying here? I sure as fuck don’t . There’s plainly huge money to be made being “anti woke” 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 34892 Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 There clearly is for the likes of Morgan but I can't see how Murdoch's channel succeeds. By all accounts it looks much better than GB News but it's going to suffer from the same problem in that people are going to have to actively search it out whereas when Morgan was on ITV it was just a simple choice between them and BBC News for most viewers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
