Piers Morgan says Madonna and Gaga's rape claims are fake
Quote:
Piers Morgan has refused to back down from his scepticism over Madonna and Lady Gaga’s claims that they were raped after he received an open letter from a rape survivor.
Morgan, 51, suggested that Post-traumatic Stress Disorder has become the “latest celebrity accessory” and that Madonna and Gaga’s claims of rape shouldn’t be “necessarily accepted as fact without proper criminal investigation.”
Emily Jacob, the Founder of ReConnected Life, accused Morgan of doing a “great deal of damage” with his tweets and suggested he “make a New Years’ resolution to only open your mouth, or tweet, or in any way verbalise, anything, if it is designed to help people feel good, to be compassionate, to be kind”.
Writing for the Huffington Post, Jacob told her “sisters” to ignore his remarks and hailed Lady Gaga and Madonna as “beacons of light for us to follow and draw inspiration from”.
Addressing the letter on Twitter Morgan replied: “I don't know who you are, let alone tell you that you weren't raped.
“I remain sceptical about Madonna & Lady Gaga's claims.”

@piersmorgan would also love to talk with you about PTSD, that it's not just a "military" disorder. There is a mental health youth epidemic.

I know numerous soldiers with PTSD, it's a very serious thing.
I also know people who claim to have it but clearly don't.

I rather admire @ladygaga for agreeing to an interview after my criticisms.
Should be a fascinating debate.

@piersmorgan if you continue to shame me in the process of kindly agreeing to interview w/ u I'll happily do the interview with someone else
That's EVIL of him to say...I know he likes being controversial but plzzz don't make a mockery of women's real rape claims!
Both Madonna and Gaga have gone through hell because of the rapes they suffered...this is just so so evil of him to say
Piers Morgan just craves attention. Opinions like these are why he is able to maintain his career by getting people listening. He probably know his opinions are disgusting deep down, but it's not like they haven't benefited him, so why would he change?
