How happy he was to be in front of the cameras! For the launch of TalkTV, Monday April 25 in the United Kingdom, the controversial but popular British presenter Piers Morgan did not hide his delight to come back to the stage. His show, at 8 p.m. every night, is called “Uncensored” (“not censored”) and he promises, stars in his eyes, to “celebrate the real freedom of expression”, and not “the kind of freedom to ‘Expression “that the” woke snowflakes defend “[politically correct young people]. “You are not going to like this program, he warns. In fact, it will even clear you.”
Talktv is a right, direct and limitless talk show television channel. Who better to embody it than the presenter at the ego bouffi and categorical opinions, who managed to become one of the most recognizable faces of the United Kingdom? And how to start better than with an exclusive interview with Donald Trump, the former American president?
EPAIS Address book
Talktv marks the return of the Rupert Murdoch group, 91, on British television. The Australian-American magnate, creator of Fox News, owner of Sun and Times, has given up launching a continuous news channel. However, he was burning with it, after having sold Sky News, the chain he had created in 1989, in Comcast, in 2018.
He ended up giving up, because such a company would be too expensive. Instead, he creates Talktv, who surfs Talkradio, which he has long. This radio works on a simple model: a notorious presenter or presenter, who does not have her tongue in his pocket, and calls for listeners. Twenty -one hours a day, TalkTV is content to install a camera in the studios of Talkradio and to rebroadcast. To this are now added three hours of production in prime time, whose highlight is the program of Piers Morgan.
The presenter has a thick address book and he knows Donald Trump for a long time. He participated (and won) in his program “The Apprentice”, in 2008. The interview, broadcast on Monday 25 and Tuesday, April 26, is well conducted, and the little sentences of the former American president brought an important advertisement to The new channel. Mr. Trump refuses to say if he will show up in 2024, but “many people will be happy” when he announces his decision, he said. According to him, he would have offered Angela Merkel a white flag when he was in the White House, to signify the danger of his energy policy towards Russia.
According to Enders Analysis, a media research company, it is “unlikely TalkTV to be beneficial in the medium term”. But the goal may be elsewhere. The Murdoch group needs this kind of video interviews in its multimedia offer. The first evening obtained an honorable audience, at 2 %, with nearly 400,000 viewers. More than continuous news channels Sky News and BBC News at the same time.
