Piers Morgan Slams Mark Levin Over Response To Iran War, Israel

Piers Morgan criticized Fox News weekend host Mark Levin Thursday for attacking people who criticize the Iran war.

Morgan and Sirius XM’s Megyn Kelly criticized Levin for conflating anti-Zionism with antisemitism and claiming that Israel critics are responsible for the war, which prompted Levin to call Morgan a “vile asshole” on X. Morgan, on “Piers Morgan Uncensored,” accused Levin of being irrelevant and a hypocrite who accuses critics of the Iran war of being “Neo-fascists.”

“Mark Levin is a little known American broadcaster with a Sunday night graveyard slop on cable news. Very few people watch Mark Levin. Before the Iran war began, very few people knew Mark Levin at all,” Morgan said. “He first came to my attention because of his extraordinary social media outburst about many people I happen to be interviewing. He called Megyn Kelly ‘an unhinged degenerate bigot.’ He called Dave Smith ‘a grifting imbecile.’ The popular congressman, Ro Khanna, a ‘Jew hating demagogue.’ This week, he added me, finally, to the list. ‘Piers Morgan is a vile asshole,’ he posted.”

Levin has labeled podcasters who criticize the Iran war “woke Reich Neo-fascists,” and has called for them to be censored.

“The problem is is also a colossal hypocrite and wrong about pretty much everything. First of all, he is one of the most outspoken critics of the unhinged liberals who compare Trump and Republicans to Adolf Hitler and the Nazis,” Morgan said. “In his own words, ‘false comparisons to Hitler imperil the Constitution and create real life dangers. This kind of rhetoric is disgusting and dehumanizing,’ he says. On that, we completely agree. But how does Mark Levin categorize anyone who criticizes the Iran war? … If those words sound familiar, it’s because they’re the same ones he used to justify censoring mostly conservatives on the COVID lab leak theory, on January 6 and Hunter Biden’s laptop.”

“In a nutshell, therefore, Mark Levin is a big advocate for free speech so long as you agree with him,” Morgan continued.
