And BTW: When does being a judge on a talent show qualify someone as a political science major for national TV?
Oh yes, and here is an interesting tidbit about this schmuck:
"Morgan was fired as Editor of the Daily Mirror on 14 May 2004 after authorising the newspaper's publication of photographs allegedly showing Iraqi prisoners being abused by British Army soldiers from the Queen's Lancashire Regiment.[17] Within days the photographs were shown to be crude fakes. Under the headline "SORRY.. WE WERE HOAXED", the Mirror responded that it had fallen victim to a "calculated and malicious hoax" and apologised for the publication of the photographs."
So in other words he's the Dan RaTHer of England.

And that is only a mark associated with being caught. The press is full of lying scumbags, too many to catch.
The function of the news media is to turn a profit, and that is accomplished by ratings that drive up the price they can charge for advertising.
RE: I looked up this guy and nowhere can I find information that states he is has a green card or anything else relating to his legal sfatus.
I spoke to a friend who works with CNN who works at HR. The man HAS a green card. He was hired by big media on a working visa ( which a lot of foreigners have ) and eventually was eligible to apply for a green card ( which he has ).
Suffice it to say that he is here in the USA LEGALLY, according to our labor laws.
The publishers of the Daily Mirror have become embroiled in the phone hacking scandal after it was revealed that four individuals have launched legal action against the companys titles.
One of the claims, launched at the High Court by ex-England manager Sven-Goran Eriksson, alleges phone hacking at the Daily Mirror while Piers Morgan was editor.
