Maybe they'll wheel Larry King back in. That forehead will need more make-up.

Great news: http://www.newser.com/story/182774/c..._entertainment

Newser) – Piers Morgan Live will soon be dead after three years of low ratings, the British host says.

"Look, I am a British guy debating American cultural issues, including guns, which has been very polarizing, and there is no doubt that there are many in the audience who are tired of me banging on about it," Morgan tells the New York Times.

CNN confirmed to the Hollywood Reporter that the show is on the way out, though the "date of the final program is still to be determined."

He's your citizen, born and bred. You made him, and he belongs with you.

I hadn't really considered that. Speaking of which, it's not often a petition to the white house is made to deport an individual. Piers Morgan may have made his own historical footnote in that regard.

A common joke that was doing the rounds at the time

Americans have started a petition to kick Piers Morgan out of the country. Meanwhile, a counter-campaign has been launched in Britain to refuse to take him back.

I hope we can meet the Yanks halfway on this, and put the (insert expletive here) in the middle of the Atlantic.

Obama only has two more years, eleven months and three weeks left to serve ... perhaps he will put Piers Morgan on his pardon list

That tea may be a tad salty.
