"If people are curious why @benshapiro has suddenly turned on me, this may explain it the guy just can't take anyone criticising Israel's govt. Morgan then linked to a clip of himself complaining in January that he had been completely frozen out by Shapiro after becoming more critical of Israel."
"As for @benshapiro mocking me as the new Jerry Springer', I take that as a great compliment. Jerry was a great friend of mine, one of the most successful stars in entertainment history, and unlike Comical Ali' Ben, he believed passionately in free speech."
Piers Morgan responded to Ben Shapiro's criticism on social media, defending his journalistic approach and editorial choices. Shapiro had called Morgan the Jerry Springer of political television and criticized him for hosting controversial guests like Dave Smith, who is critical of Israel. Morgan attributed Shapiro's sudden hostility to his own increased criticism of Israel's government policies. Morgan reframed Shapiro's Jerry Springer comparison as a compliment, noting that Springer was a successful entertainer who championed free speech. The two have a history of contentious exchanges dating back to a 2013 gun control debate on Morgan's CNN show.
