In a trailer released for an interview British transatlantic TV personality and journalist Piers Morgan conducted for Rupert Murdoch’s upstart UK television station TalkTV with Mr Trump, the video appeared to show the former president storming off in anger. However, audio recorded by Trump’s team provided to Breitbart News contradicted the narrative spun in the 30-second clip posted by Morgan.
In an article penned in another Murdoch media company, The Sun newspaper, Morgan hinted that ‘Mr Brexit’ Nigel Farage had provided a dossier of negative comments penned by Morgan in the British press about Trump, an accusation which Mr Farage confirmed on his YouTube channel on Thursday morning.
Morgan, in his typical hyperbolic fashion, claimed that Mr Trump was “foaming at the mouth” while reading out statements from the former Celebrity Apprentice winner, including that Trump had “morphed into a monster” and should be removed from office and barred from ever running for president again.
