Morgan to Sue Earl Spencer Over "Disgusting Lies"

The book includes several revelations that have drawn scrutiny, with Piers Morgan publicly disputing specific claims made within the text.

The Daily Mirror and Sunday Mirror published intrusive photos of Princess Diana in a gym, an incident that led the Mirror Group to pay an estimated one million pounds in damages.

Spencer's memoir inaccurately attributes responsibility for the publication of these photos to Piers Morgan, despite Morgan's assertion that he was working as a show business columnist at The Sun at the time and only joined the Mirror Group two years after the incident.

Earl Spencer offered a personal apology to Piers Morgan for a defamatory lie included in his book, acknowledging his duty as a historian to ensure factual accuracy.

Morgan, however, criticized the ongoing sale of the book, questioning why it remains on shelves and available for purchase globally despite the admitted error.

He emphasized that millions of copies containing the "defamatory lie" continue to be sold, making the apology insufficient without a recall.

Earl Spencer's memoir claims Piers Morgan was rude during a phone call concerning an invitation to Princess Diana's funeral.

Morgan asserts that his invitation was extended by the Lord Chamberlain, adhering to royal protocol for newspaper editors at significant royal events, and he specifically confirmed Spencer family approval before accepting to avoid contention.

He accuses Earl Spencer of intentionally misrepresenting the historical record of their interaction to portray Morgan negatively.

He further highlights his non-involvement in the Mirror's actions concerning Diana, reinforcing his position against Spencer's accusations.

Piers Morgan has formally engaged the law firm Schillings to demand that Earl Spencer and his publisher, Penguin, withdraw the controversial memoir from sale.

Morgan has pledged to donate any potential damages received from the lawsuit to the King's Trust, underscoring his commitment to the legal action until the defamatory content is removed from the market.

Morgan accuses Earl Spencer of profound hypocrisy, noting Spencer once questioned what kind of sibling would profit from a deceased sibling's death, yet is now doing precisely that.

He likens Spencer's actions to those of Prince Harry and describes him as a "reprehensible hypocrite," especially given the book's perceived unfair targeting of King Charles, who is actively working to restore his public reputation.

Morgan denounces the "incendiary allegations of racism" made by Prince Harry against the royal family, finding them equally egregious.

He labels Earl Spencer as a "reptile" for publishing a book he previously vowed not to write, asserting that it is full of lies rather than historical truths, thereby adding to the Royal Family's burdens.

He notes Trump's capacity for charm, as many world leaders would attest, but also his ability to turn on individuals "like a rattlesnake" if he dislikes their actions or statements, highlighting the complex dynamic of their relationship, reminiscent of Tony Blair and Rupert Murdoch.

He commends networks like Fox News for supporting banned outlets, and criticizes this tactic as a suppression of free speech and press freedom, noting his similar opposition to Barack Obama's use of such measures against journalists.

This program is an expansion of Morgan's broader 'Uncensored' media empire, reflecting his continued venture into diverse media projects.
