Two Reposts on Piers Morgan Being Trash
Keeping the intro short. I’m reposting Dr. Dannielle Blumenthal, a stranger I stumbled upon on LinkedIn. Her bio says she is an author on topics such as “feminist theory, popular culture, branding and marketing, cultural polarization, propaganda, empowerment, and personal memoir.”
Dr. Blumenthal shared a video of Piers Morgan shouting over an Israel advocate, Natasha Hausdorff, more than 60 times, blatantly misrepresenting her and spreading blood libel that he insists must be true—despite no evidence. It’s an infuriating watch. The upside is that Piers at least had a real Israel rep, and not another clown like Rabbi Schmuley. But to make everything worse, Dave Smith, an extremely bigoted and unfunny shock-jock comedian (see my MMA article that covers him: https://kingchill.com/jude/mma), is pitted as an expert on anything—when he’s not.
I personally like that Dr. Blumenthal also has her own website, rather than jumping ship for Substack and Medium like the rest of the bloggers. I also really hate watching clips of Piers Morgan, so I appreciate her transcript below. Please do not ever support Piers Morgan. He’s a blatant misogynist and a horrible person, profiting from unethical behavior. [See another article on a similar rat profitting on war here]

Piers Morgan Is A Worse Debater Than Dave Smith
Dr. Blumenthal; June 4, 2025
Debating Natasha Hausdorff, Morgan loses control. He curses and interrupts Hausdorff incessantly. His point makes no sense. He comes across as a bully who’s losing the fight badly, because he is.
Key points of substance:
The civilian to combatant ratio in Gaza is 1:1 (extraordinarily low) and that is after Hamas pushing civilians into the line of fire.
All disputed incidents must be investigated before definitive facts are asserted.
Israel is conducting the war and obviously has the right to keep civilians out of the war zone.
It is propaganda to claim that everyone who asserts a fact which makes Israel look good is in {an employee} of Israel.
If you cannot allow your debate partner to speak, you have already lost the debate.
Clip 1
Morgan: I was told by the ambassador to UK it was a blood libel for me to suggest that Israel had killed children in this war.
Hausdorff: No, I don’t believe that was the case.
Morgan: It has to do with targeting children. There is a difference.
Hausdorff: Right. Because we are hearing that Israel is targeting children and that couldn’t be further from the truth.
Morgan: Well, last week, nine out of ten children in one home where two doctors reside were killed in an airstrike. What was that?
Hausdorff: It remarkable that that has been based only on the basis of hearsay.
Morgan: You don’t believe that story? I want these stories to…
Hausdorff: Wait a minute.
Morgan: You don’t believe that those children were killed?
Hausdorff: I have seen conflicting accounts and I want that story to be properly investigated before the international media runs with it.
Morgan: I think those two parents, one of whom I think operated on one of the children… I have a question. You think that those two doctors, the parents, they just made it up that nine of ten children had been blown to pieces by an Israeli airstrike? If this is true… You don’t believe it?
Hausdorff: Well, why on earth was artificially generated imagery used to promote this story when it first
Morgan: I’ve to say, think what you just said about that family is despicable. I’m sorry, it’s despicable.
Smith: You talk about blood libel
Morgan: Like Dave said, talk about blood libel, talk about lies, you talk about promoting propaganda and here you sit here as a lawyer and you say that you do not believe those nine children were killed?
Hausdorff: I didn’t say that. You’re putting words in my mouth.
Morgan: Do you believe it or not?
Hausdorff: I said that there were conflicting and it needs to be investigated.
Morgan: Do you believe it? I thought you would be the The parents said nine of their ten children were killed. Do you believe them or not? Or did those two doctors make it up?
Hausdorff: They haven’t said that directly as far as I have seen. I have seen second-hand accounts and hearsay, but it’s important to ask why are these civilians still there?
Morgan: Why is it that Actually, you know, it’s important to us whether you believe that family have lost nine of their 10 children. I want to know why the international You don’t, do you? You don’t. And this goes to the point that I would say about Israel generally now, in this war now. civilians? Israel says they don’t believe anything. Coming out of Hamas, indeed. Every story that comes out about the deaths of civilians in Gaza… Because there is a ..someone will pop up representing the Israeli government saying…It’s propaganda. It’s not true. I’ve heard it’s not right. I’ve heard it didn’t happen.
Clip 2
Morgan: Israel has decided no journalists from outside can go in.
Hausdorff: For three reasons, and they make that assessment themselves.
Morgan: What right does Israel have to do that?
Hausdorff: For three reasons. Will you allow me to finish?
Morgan: There are no reasons. It’s none of your business whether journalists view their safety as being a risk.
Hausdorff: You haven’t heard the reasons yet. The first is the safety of journalists, and I appreciate you don’t accept that.
Morgan: I think it’s a load of nonsense.
Hausdorff: The second is the ability of IDF soldiers to conduct this war against Hamas without—
Morgan: Without journalists getting in the way?
Hausdorff: No, actually. By the way, Hamas members wearing press vests are not journalists.
Morgan: So none of them are journalists?
Hausdorff: And reason number three—
Morgan: Just to be clear, none of the Palestinian journalists who’ve been killed are actually journalists? Are they all Hamas members?
Hausdorff: Those that are—
Morgan: Every single dead Palestinian journalist is a member of Hamas? Is that your position?
Hausdorff: No, listen, I appreciate—
Morgan: That is also bullshit. That’s two out of two. What’s the third reason?
Hausdorff: Our mutual friend Douglas Murray was embedded with the IDF in Lebanon.
Morgan: You said it yourself. I love Douglas, but he was embedded with the IDF. He’s unbelievably pro-Israel, so of course he was going to write what he witnessed while embedded with the IDF.
Hausdorff: Let me finish what his experiences there were. The difference is—
Morgan: You don’t have to tell me.
Hausdorff: The IDF allowed journalists into Lebanon. He wasn’t the only one. There were many other international journalists—
Morgan: No, no, no. Those other international journalists with him were very clear. There have been a tiny handful of journalists let in by the IDF in tightly controlled environments to witness what the IDF was prepared to let them see.
Hausdorff: And do you know what those journalists—
Morgan: To stop the bullshit, which is out of control, international journalists should be allowed to go in and do their jobs. They will worry with their networks or organizations about their safety, but they should be allowed to do their jobs. There’s only one reason why the Israeli government doesn’t want international journalists crawling all over Gaza: they do not want them reporting what they will find. Reason number three includes the bodies of thousands of children who, on the Israeli side, you are not counting as you count the terrorists you kill, but who journalists would.
Hausdorff: Reason number three is that those journalists in Lebanon said they had to be very careful about what they reported because of what Hezbollah would do to their colleagues in Beirut. The fact that international journalists have sunk to this level, that they would allow their reportage to be controlled by terrorist organizations, Iranian proxies, Hamas and Hezbollah included, is despicable. That is the real issue here that has driven the international—The real issue is terrorist organizations’ propaganda—
Morgan: Actually, it’s not. Let me bring in David. You’ve made all your points, and they all, I’m afraid, Natasha, turned out to be bullshit. So let me bring in David.
Clip 3
Dave Smith: It’s disqualifying to this conversation. You’re playing a different game than me and Piers are. We are having a conversation about what’s actually going on. You’re a lawyer who’s not allowed to incriminate your client, which is Israel, because you know the answer the same way Piers does, the same way I know it. Do they have nukes?
Natasha Hausdorff: Let me be perfectly clear. I am not in the employ of anyone associated with Israel.
Piers Morgan: What’s the name of your organisation?
Natasha Hausdorff: UK Lawyers for Israel began as a voluntary association of lawyers looking for the proper application of law to Israel, Israelis, and combating anti-Semitism.
Dave Smith: (inaudible, interrupting).
Natasha Hausdorff: We are having a different conversation. This is a circus, and I am actually seeking to address practical questions, including the disgusting situation that we are now left with, where the international community has said that Palestinian civilians must uniquely be kept in a war zone, may not be permitted to leave. That is what I am hearing being advocated for consistently so that they can be continued to be used not just as human shields by Hamas, but as human sacrifices, dragging this conflict out. The tragedy of this misinformation and this propaganda is not just that Jews are being gunned down and burned in the street. It is also that Palestinian civilians are continuing to suffer as a result of this war, but also of Hamas suppression, repression, torture, the stealing of aid which has been well documented. The fact that people like the two of you will continue to put out this false information to perpetuate this conflict—
Dave Smith: You are the one putting out false information here.
Natasha Hausdorff: What have I said that’s false?
Piers Morgan: I didn’t think anyone could be more disingenuous than the UK ambassador. I got to say, Natasha, you’ve got right up there, you’ve crossed that little bar.
Natasha Hausdorff: Indicate one aspect of what I have said that is incorrect, we will have this conversation. But so far you are throwing out appallingly misconceived allegations which are baseless.
The only thing Natasha asserts above that I’m unsure of is a 1:1 combatant:civilian ratio. Last I checked, Hamas acknolwedged that 72% of the deaths were combat aged men, and there is tons of evidence of using underage men as militants. I’d wager the ratio is even lower than 1:1. Dr. Blumenthal agrees.
We’ll never know the true ratio because Palestinian militants dress like civilians and blame natural death on Israel. They also shoot at civilians and blame Israel. They also misfire rockets. Hamas hasnt even released a list of deaths from the Al-Ahli Arab Hospital explosion, nearly 600 days ago, when Palestinian militants blew up their own hospital, blamed it on Israel, and Piers Morgan and the BBC blamed Israel.
Yes, one innocent dying is tragic. That’s why you need to look into root cause analysis, not conclusions. All civilian deaths—Israeli, Palestinian, Bedouin, Thai, Africans and more—were the fault of Palestine Supporters starting a war with no expectation of winning. We learned that the murder rate of IDF:civilians on October 7 is about 1:3, which is to say Palestine Supporters ran into a music festival and into homes to murder unarmed people at close range.
BTW, neither Piers nor Dave list even one single thing Natasha said that is incorrect or a lie. When proud Jews are being annoying, just say they’re lying… about something. You apparently do not need to explain further, because truth has never mattered to the ‘antizionists.’
Likewise, neither Piers or Dave say a single eloquent point. Every single “point” is a conclusion that Israel is responsible for things they’re not responsible for. The comedic duo come off as complete assh’s. But somehow this behavior helps Palestine. I don’t get it. Where are the lazy “psyop” conspiracies when they make even an iota of sense, like, “Faux Palestine Supporters are put on TV to show how dumb that cult is.”
I’m editing yesterday’s post because I failed to fully show what a complete piece of shit Piers Morgan is. Maybe you need to see it to fully understand, but please don’t help him monetize.
Since Piers’ embarassing video, where he interrupts a Jewish woman more than 60 times, Piers has gone on a public tirade about he will block everyone who annoys him and not respond to the very valid criticism laid out against him. This is a man who smile’s when he has Dan Bilzerian and Candace Owens on to discuss Holocaust denial, but insisted a lawyer was pure evil.
Also, this is a man who’s show is called “Uncensored”. Do you see the irony? Piers screams over people to censor them. Now he’s blocking dissenters on social media. As we know, many “free speech absolutists” do their best to censor anyone who criticizes them. They worry about the rights of terrorists, not their victims. I doubt this is the last of Piers open censorship policy.
But remember, he’s a “journalist.” He forgets his guests names (see images above) and refuses to debate people who don’t curse enough. But he’s deemed a journalist because he brags about how many views he gets. Content creators are journalists. Shit ones.
Lee Kern wrote the following, which you can see on his X and IG: https://x.com/leekern13/status/1930296928367194136
“WHY I DECLINED PIERS MORGAN
The Piers Morgan show has repeatedly asked me on as a guest. Their first request was on November 1st 2023 - three weeks after the muslim terrorists Hamas raped and kidnapped hostages.
I declined and have done ever since. Their most recent request was this April. The reason why I declined is because of something Piers tweeted in those early days of the war started by Hamas. Whilst we in Israel and the Jewish world were grieving - real grief - because people had been raped, people had been murdered, people had been kidnapped - women, children and babies - whilst we were doing this Piers Morgan was boasting.
He was celebrating.
He was celebrating how well his viewing figures were doing in his episodes talking about the massacre.
“Six million” he bragged in one of his tweets.
At the time I glibly I said to myself, “I’m glad someone’s doing well out of the rape and kidnaps.” But it truly was despicable and it really gets to the heart of the man. He has no real moral code or value system other than attention. He’s an archetypal, soulless media whore. His show is not designed to illuminate. It is to simply create a freak-show of vapid conflict that appeals to people who simply want a verbal fistfight.
Pigs fighting in shit is Piers’ idea of journalism.
In truth he knows what he does isn’t journalism. At best he might think what he does is entertainment. But it isn’t that either. It’s simply shitting excrement into public discourse. And the reasonable and legitimate outrage people feel when shit is pumped into conversations that have real life or death ramifications - Piers - in his misplaced pride - will mistake - or pretend to mistake - for a journalistic job well done.
None the less, when his people first wrote to me i thought maybe i could guide Piers into doing some real journalism that would allow the public to weigh up primary evidence for themselves.
I replied: “I can’t speak this week. Also I don’t think I should be a priority. I’m very much in favour of letting people directly affected be pushed to the front of the conversation. Yesterday I met a lady in Sderot who is probably the most perfect and energetic guest Piers could ever engage with - and she was directly in the middle of a battle that lasted 36 hours.”
This opportunity to provide viewers with primary evidence and a firsthand account of the massacre didn’t happen. There was no serious interest in understanding this conflict. I imagine this applies to any other topic that might be covered.
Persistent, his people tried to get me on the show again a few days later.
I replied: “I know you’re keen to have me. I’m doing something unfashionable that maybe lots of people don’t do anymore: I’ve come here to actually see where the atrocities happened for myself and to speak to survivors so I’m not just some random internet guy mouthing off. Please let me know when you’ve spoken to ——-. I’ve told her you will be in touch. I don’t want to give her false hope because she’s someone who has been part of horrific things and is grieving for her community. Please don’t let me be involved in adding to her roller coaster”
It didn’t happen.
His people wrote to me again a few days later to try and get me on the show. I continued to believe that if the public were to be illuminated, then the testimony of an actual survivor was more important than my opinions.
So I replied firmly: “What happened with ——- appearing on the show? She’s a clear coherent voice who experienced a massacre first hand. Her entire community are now refugees spread across a country. You should be interviewing her.”
His team replied: “We couldn’t make it work, we’ve lots of guests and little time alas. Keen to have you on.”
I replied: “Why couldn’t it work? She’s still alive. What’s tangibly preventing you from getting her on this week or next? She’s an eloquent real person who has been in a massacre and continues to be affected by what you want to report on.“
They ignored this.
“Lots of guests and little time?”
Well here I was offering to step back to give them a real story. But they weren’t interested. They wanted me because I say the words “shit” and “fuck” and have a comedy background that allows me to be engagingly garish. I’m self aware. I own what I do. But I still seemed to have more of a journalistic value system than Piers and his team and still seemed to believe education and illumination on this horrible situation was more important than just getting on high octane personalities who would argue so that Piers could get more attention and money.
And yet again, a few weeks later, they requested me on as a guest. And they sent me eight more requests over the following months that I didn’t reply to.
So I’ll wind this up by saying Piers Morgan isn’t going to make or break what happens in this conflict. It won’t end until the Islamic fundamentalists Hamas release the hostages and their jihadist tyranny over the population of Gaza - which has included control over their food supply - ends.
Finally, seeing as Piers Morgan has shown himself to be demonstrably thin skinned and I’ll most likely be blocked by him if he sees this, I may as well finish on the most important point.
This is what society knows. This is what even his viewers know. And it’s worth us stating even though it’s a given: The most objectionable and off putting thing about any Piers Morgan show is Piers Morgan and the poorly crafted simulation of a personality that he has constructed for himself.
Piers Morgan as a human being is so very clearly, and so very palpably, a bloviating toad.
You couldn’t put together a less charming conglomeration of DNA in the rough approximate shape of a human being.
He is a slimy bog creature.
A toadstool dwelling peasant, high on the methane emitted from his own arsehole.
More prolapsed rectum than a man, his anus of a mouth emits half digested ideas like loose excremental sludge.
He is a sloshing barrel of smugness and pus.
Every pore in his bloated face oozes misplaced arrogance. Misplaced because nothing about his presentation or content merits any kind of pride.
In short, ladies and gentlemen, Piers Morgan is a man who can only be described as the Manchester United of cunts.”
And sure enough, Piers responded by banning him. As Lee and everyone else predicted.
