Piers Morgan Responds To Being Branded âJeremy Clarkson Tribute Actâ After Poorly Reviewed âUncensoredâ Interview
Piers Morgan has reacted to being compared to Jeremy Clarkson as his new show, Uncensored, was reviewed very poorly. Named a âJeremy Clarkson tribute actâ, the presenter and journalist turned to social media to vent about the comparison.
Morganâs first episode of Uncensored featured an interview with former US president Donald Trump where they discussed cancel culture. But once heâd read the review, he took to Twitter to respond where he brings up the 2004 incident between the two presenters where Jeremy punched Morgan.
âUPDATE: The Guardian review says Iâm a âJeremy Clarkson tribute actâ.
âGiven my long-time respect and admiration for @JeremyClarkson (when heâs not punching me in the head), his fierce intelligence, razor-sharp wit and rakishly handsome looks, I take this as a massive compliment!â

The review by The Guardian, begins to describe Morgan, saying that if he âwere a nightclub bouncer, he would try to start fightsâ, but as he begins the review, starts with:
âOK then, you preening pugilistic publicist, letâs see what we can do.â
Of course, things only go down hill from here as the writer Mark Lawson puts down Piersâ ability to interview without butting heads.
âThis splenetic soliloquy also showcased the weakest part of his broadcasting persona.
âThe Jeremy Clarkson tribute act revealed when he is allowed to speak uninterrupted for too long.â
The review assigned two stars to âUncensoredâ.
