By 'outspoken' you mean 'loud mouthed bully'?

Piers Morgan is proof that there is no accountability in the media. A horrible vain bully who can’t take what he dishes out. The sooner he gets cancelled the better society will be.

For goodness sake ITV. Just sack this disgusting bully and start setting an example.

Amini just won an Industry Champion's Award. Piers Morgan just just quite unable to be anything other than a complete twat.
