Piers Morgan Wishes Erin Burnett ‘Total, Abject Failure’ After Celebrity Apprentice

Piers Morgan stopped by the set of his CNN colleague (and former Celebrity Apprentice guest) Erin Burnett‘s new show to wish her… well. “Total, abject failure.” In the nicest way possible, of course.

Burnett, you see, had tried to get Morgan fired from the reality show competition by telling host Donald Trump that he was, as Morgan joked, a “repulsive human being.” “You and Jim Cramer. Stuck the knife straight in my back,” he continued. “So I’ve just come to wish you total, abject failure.”

Burnett took it all in stride and the two moved on to discuss Burnett’s Arsenal-loving digital producer… whom you might know as Mediaite’s former TV editor, the lovely and effervescent Mark Joyella.

Morgan wrapped up his visit by voicing his excitement for OutFront and letting Burnett know that “I just want to tune in at seven o’clock and get your opinion on what’s going on. I’m actually more interested in your opinion than the people you bring on. And I think a lot of people will be.” Sniffle.

Erin is a wall street shill and I wish her total abject failure.

Ummm…she was never a contestant. She and Kramer interviewed the top few contestants and recommended to Trump who to fire and who to keep. Time for a correction!

Who cares? Is this the Piers Morgan homepage?

I’m thinking Piers is hoping he gets that dancing with the stars gig, if for no other reason because he might catch a little cleavage, and maybe a nipple or two.

Cramer, not Kramer.

Her first impression was the correct one – he is a douchebag.

If only Limbaugh used the term “Total, abject failure.” In the nicest way possible, of course,” with respect to obama’s agenda. He only said that he “hopes obama fails.”

WEIRD.
Mr Hyperbole

where is Mediaite when Ari Fleischer agrees with Herman Cain when he says “blacks are brainwashed?”

Cornell B says that was bigoted and if he said the same about Jews, he would have beeen taken off-air. I somewhat agree…

and then Tabloid Piers re-inserted his head up Rupert Murdoch’s behind.

All these TV (lack of) personality’s are full of crap. How can people find them interesting. I can not think of one I would take advice from or believe.

All I know about Erin Burnett (from her three minute financial reports on MORNING JOE on MSNBC) is that she is smoking hot — if you know what I mean? Though I have no knowledge if she smokes.

Is he that arrogant that he thought using (and dwelling on) that dated story in a rather offensive and negative manner would possibly help him suddenly appear likable and grow his dismal audience?

Forced to choose between an overbearing Brit and a corporate shill for Wall Street, I’m picking Ms. Burnett.

looks like he got his wish. Outfront ratings are bad, almost as bad as the show. Yep, she’s cute but totally dumb.
