Morgan: More Analysis…

I really like what TVNewser’s Alex Weprin writes here about CNN’s Piers Morgan shenanigans…

So CNN has not negotiated with Morgan, but they did have informal “discussions.” Of course, the idea that Morgan and his representation would sit politely and only listen to what CNN had to say is ridiculous, but legally necessary for the network to say publicly. In light of the very specific reports coming out of the UK in June, which nailed the November time-frame for him starting on CNN and threw around specific dollar figures, it is safe to say that Morgan’s people, who may have included Cowell, had substantive talks with Turner Broadcasting about Morgan, even if technically they were not supposed to.

Indeed.
