No love lost…
Following his appearance on a US talk show last night, Piers Morgan has been engaged in a Twitter feud today with Harry Potter author, JK Rowling.
It’s been an eventful few hours for Morgan who was on the receiving end of some choice words for from Australian comedian Jeff Jeffries.
By choice words, we mean Jeffries told him to “Fu*k off”…
Rowling then couldn’t contain her glee at watching the events unfold on TV, and took Twitter to let her feelings be known.
Yes, watching Piers Morgan being told to fuck off on live TV is *exactly* as satisfying as I'd always imagined. https://t.co/4FII8sYmIt

Morgan responded…
This is why I've never read a single word of Harry Potter. https://t.co/XUJBMs4KKm

And it just spiralled onwards wildly from there…
Because you had a premonition that one day the author would roar with laughter at seeing you called out for your bullshit on live TV? https://t.co/8rkKSqJTnG

Everything I said was factual.
If you think screaming 'FUCK OFF!!!' at me changes that, then you're mistaken. https://t.co/0U9fVoTjfc— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) February 11, 2017
.@piersmorgan Would you like a couple of hours to mock up some pictures of refugees carrying explosives to substantiate your position? https://t.co/sFj0kqIajd

The superior, dismissive arrogance of rabid Remain/Clinton supporters like @jk_rowling is, of course, precisely why both campaigns lost.

The fact-free, amoral, bigotry-apologism of celebrity toady Piers Morgan is, of course, why it's so delicious to see him told to fuck off. https://t.co/4XNF4G0nlD

Peak foul-mouthed, minor celebrity anti-Trump hysteria at its most deliciously supercilious: https://t.co/GsvU1Y75OG

.@piersmorgan If only you'd read Harry Potter, you'd know the downside of sucking up to the biggest bully in school is getting burned alive.

No bigger bullies right now than the shrieking, hysterical anti-Trump celebrity brigade.
You lost, so suck it up Dolores. https://t.co/RFQkyJWxZ5— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) February 11, 2017
Liberals like @jk_rowling are all for tolerance & free speech, until you refuse to call Trump the new Hitler.
Then you can 'F**K OFF!!!!'— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) February 11, 2017
I think we need to take a breather after that back and forth…
