Piers Morgan In Furious Tirade After BBC Airs Graphic Cartoon Of Him With Trump<\/b>
\nPiers Morgan\u00a0responded with fury after BBC satire \u2018The Mash Report\u2019 broadcast a cartoon image of him pleasuring US President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

The \u2018Good Morning Britain\u2019 presenter, who was granted Trump\u2019s first international broadcast interview last week, tweeted the image on Friday night.<\/p>\n

He wrote: \u201cThe BBC thinks this is OK to broadcast. But if it depicted high profile women<\/a>, there would be outrage. Why the double standard?\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\u2018The Mash Report\u2019, which plays with a parental guidance lock on the BBC iPlayer and airs on Thursday nights after the 9pm watershed, is labelled a \u201csatirical and surreal news show\u201d and is presented by Nish Kumar.<\/p>\n

The programme used the cartoon after\u00a0criticism of Morgan\u2019s interviewing style and accusations he \u201cbrown nosed\u201d Trump during the groundbreaking Q and A.<\/p>\n

But this did little to appease Morgan who claimed the image would not have aired had it involved two prominent women<\/a> or gay<\/a> men<\/a>.<\/p>\n

So if it was a famous female<\/a> politician & female<\/a> interviewer, you\u2019d be fine with it? If not, you\u2019re as two-faced as the BBC. t.co\/U1Kz06plgw<\/a>
\nSure, but if was two famous women<\/a> being depicted that way you would be screaming blue murder about it. t.co\/Aktgzdj0Uc<\/a>
\nWould you be so gleeful if the BBC had done it to two high profile women<\/a> or two high profile gay<\/a> men<\/a>? t.co\/bqQxxWnY39<\/a>
\nIn the process of rallying against the image, however, Morgan\u2019s tweet went viral, racking up thousands of shares on Twitter.<\/p>\n

The cartoon featured on \u2018The Mash Report\u2019 as part of a segment analysing the differences between body language of legendary interviewer David Frost and his subject Richard Nixon with that of Morgan and Trump.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the Trump interview, the staging hinted at a greater intimacy between the two men<\/a>,\u201d the correspondent says before the cartoon is revealed.
