As
Christmas Day unfolds across the USA, loved ones express their
special relationships and gifts are exchanged, CNN has asked if
Britain kept the receipt for Piers Morgan.
“It
was a nice offer, a nice thought, no very nice of you, very nice of
you,,” said Ted Billingsworth, CEO of CNN. “But the Morgan is a
fantasy figure and I am not sure it fits in with our collection –
so, well we hope you kept the receipt and I could always exchange it
for something else.”
When
CNN first received their Piers they initially overlooked the tacky
packaging and dubious reputation as they were excited that the
British veneer might add a level of class. However they quickly
discovered that their new Piers did not integrate well, neither with
gun nuts, nor sane people who like facts.
“To
be honest, when we first read the packaging we thought we were
getting Piers Brosnan and well James Bond, you know, sheer class.
Even Remington Steele, class. Morgan, not so,” explained
Billingsworth. “And the Morgan doesn't play well with others, does
it? Very disruptive.”
After
some embarrassment the disagreement was eventually resolved when
Britain agreed to see about exchanging the Morgan for a Philip
Schofield, the deal fell through when, despite searching, it
transpired that no one had seen Piers Morgan at CNN for some time.
