literally the only time PM was maybe worthy of being called a journalist was when he called out an Israeli government spokesperson on the number of supposed Hamas fighters killed while playing dumb on an ‘acceptable’ number of civilian casualties. It was like a 2min clip and I didn’t seek out the rest of the interview because… it’s Piers fucking Morgan. Everything this woman said about him is completely unsurprising. I mean that Twitter caption alone 🤦🏻‍♀️

Also I’m not sure how I feel about her being given a platform…

He’s been surprisingly…not terrible about Palestine.

[inandoutofgrace]

I’ve seen clips of his pro-Palestine guests call out his lines of questioning to them so I just assumed he has been

She told the Daily Record that she felt set up and used by Morgan

Does she live in a cave?? Is she Nell, from the movie Nell?? Because there's NO excuse for a British person in particular not to know that he's an exploitative piece of shit who very obviously wouldn't treat this story with any respect. Come on.

And like...are we sure that's really her? It wouldn't exactly surprise me if a certain kind of person would lie about that. I'll be interested to see if Gadd comments at all.

Lmao not Nell!!

For some reason, probably because I was literally an immature child, I thought that movie was hilarious. I've never seen it as an adult.

These stick with me STILL:

"Tays sway in da wiiinn!"

"Skew in da belly!"

My mom walked around mumbling "skew in the belly" for YEARS after that movie. LMAO

[gimmemoarjosh]

Haha... yep! Both me and my mom, too!

[therearewords]

Quite some chaotic energy on the first page -- I'm off to bed!

It is clear this woman is struggling mentally and unwell. It does not excuse her stalking behavior by any means - but no one can trust Piers to approach this with any nuance or consideration of her mental health or state. It’s basically a “gotcha” and likely confrontational interview which will not be informational or illuminating in any way.

[burntxtoashes]

I know it was pretty easy to find her, but the way people jumped to figure out who the real woman was makes me uncomfortable.

Fuck Piers always though. Phone hacking prick.

[rihaty]

People figured it out but she also chose to come forward and make her name public. It was not really in the public domain until she made it so. I think it’s part of her illness, I think she craves the attention.

[burntxtoashes]

Yeah I def don't think people should be interviewing her and allowing her to put herself out there even more either - I just remember when it started, people were posting her Twitter because of the 'hang my curtains' tweet from the show, and then posting her Facebook from that as well.

[buries]

It's made me uncomfortable seeing people find her old Tweets to Gadd and reply to them poking fun at her. What she did to him was horrible, but it was clear from the show that Gadd feels empathy for her and a lot of other complex emotions. It's been really discomforting watching it all play out.
