"Prince William Got Footage Cut From ITV Documentary About Harry and Meghan" https://www.thedailybeast.com/prince-william-got-footage-cut-from-itv-documentary-about-harry-and-meghan

Ofcom have cleared Piers Morgan of any wrongdoing at all after he lambasted Harry & Meghan after their Oprah Winfrey interview.
**OFCOM is clear that, consistent with freedom of expression, Mr Morgan was entitled to say he disbelieved the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's allegations and to hold and express strong views that rigorously challenged their account,' they declared, adding that their Broadcasting Code allows for individuals to express strongly held and robustly argued views, including those that are potentially harmful or highly offensive, and for broadcasters to include these in their programming.'
The restriction of such views would, in our view, be an unwarranted and chilling restriction on freedom of expression both of the broadcaster and the audience.**
Thats a pretty hard statement that shows the independent adjudicator of UK media is not having a bar of woke bullshit.
Happy Days.

@majorrage A fair and correct ruling by Ofcom. Pleased for Piers Morgan Given how many holes have been revealed in the ex-royals' interview, he was perfected entitled to express his doubts in their honesty. He must now be allowed to get job with Good Morning Britain back. I hope ITV do the right thing.

Was Piers ever silenced? And I suspect he just gave Meghan what she wanted, the Queen title! I'm not a fan of either but at least she allegedly has some talent (acting).

Shock! Gasp! Surely not?!
Person in the cast of Suits accused of “acting”. 😳

Both have certain talents in that they have fulfilled their desire to become A-list celebrities. Quite the different path trodden to get there though.

Grumpy old republican here.
Meghan and Harry wanted to get away from the press. Great, enjoy life. Do we have to have news interviews and press releases from them in this part of the world talking to the media about how they hate the media and here are they promoting their new adventures in media?
Yes I can turn the tv off and avoid reading about them on the internet but the headlines etc. seem everywhere. -
Harry has become a caricature of everything he despised.

Just like his Great Grand-Uncle Dave

@victor-meldrew Though some would dispute that lineage 😬

Considering he used to dress up as a Nazi for kicks, that is some low blow!

Hehe maybe, of course, but I don't recall them saying it like that.

And the court case they won to protect their privacy doesn't seem to be working out too well either. The Daily Mail's appeal has proved she mis-led the court in the original trail and she's had to apologise.
Be interesting if she loses the case.
