What a load of..... Some men are sexist, some women are too,
Some white people are racist, and although it's not the done thing to say some black people are too, as are some people of any colour.
Some straight people are homophobic, but those who think all are need a reality check, No one group has the monopoly on bigotry and ignorance

This is unbalanced.
The clip we see is of PM riding roughshod over a studio guest, in his usual fashion, without giving her chance to explain what she has said.
The only time the guest got a word in edgeways, and was talked over, was to say that that was not what she had said.
Simply because PM continued verbally battering her does not mean that his accusation is accurate.
We would need to hear the whole 'interview' if exchange with PM actually deserves to be called that, in order to hear what the lady had to say, and her defence, if any, of her view.
Without that balance, this is simply click bait.

Barsel - // The woman in the clip is very young and obviously uneducated. //
You must be a mindreader then, since she didn't get chance to explain what she meant, and she could be any age from eighteen to thirty-five, and her education did not appear to be visible or audible in the tirade she suffered in the short clip we have to go on.

Piers does like to talk in preference to listening to explanations. It's a fault he clearly has. But what he says there seems valid. She didn't deny what it was claimed she said, she simply wasn't keen on the inevitable conclusion. Nevertheless she should have had the opportunity to dig herself further in, or alternatively take back her claims.
If you listen to the interview, and not the click bait extract, two things emerge.
One is that the click bait does exactly what it's supposed to do - wind people up by distorting a viewpoint, and the other is that Piers Morgan is an arrogant bully who persists in misunderstanding something, in order to be offended by it.

I would not necessarily agree with what is, ironically, stereotyping by the studio guest, but she makes a more nuanced point than the original clip suggests - which was it's point anyway - but PM comes over as an arrogant bully.
Some forensic analysis of the sort Andrew Neil would offer would have demolished the argument far more effectively, but breakfast tv attracts an audience who prefer ... shall we say ... the 'broad brushstrokes' approach routinely taken by Mr Morgan.
