Piers Morgan

Journalist and broadcaster

Veteran British journalist Piers Morgan entered the battle against antisemitism in 2020 with a furious response to British rapper Wiley who had unleashed a grotesquely antisemitic rant on Twitter under the guise of an argument with his Jewish former manager. “Shame on you, Wiley,” Morgan tweeted. “You’ve exposed yourself as a disgusting anti-Semitic racist who’s spent the past 24hrs inspiring people to hate Jews & even be violent towards them.” Morgan has also taken on the antisemitism in the British Labour Party, pointedly asking a senior Labour official who came on his “Good Morning, Britain” TV show, “How come the Labour Party has become synonymous with antisemitism?” (Photo: Wikimedia / Creative Commons License)
