Piers Morgan Exits Rupert Murdoch’s Media Empire & Takes Control Of ‘Uncensored’ YouTube Channel


Piers Morgan is leaving Rupert Murdoch‘s media empire, News Corp, and taking control of his 'Uncensored' YouTube channel.

“Owning the brand allows my team and I the freedom to focus exclusively on building Uncensored into a standalone business, editorially and commercially, and in time, widening it from just me and my content.” Morgan has 3.6M YouTube subscribers and has engaged Red Seat Ventures, a sales agency that has worked with the likes of Tucker Carlson, to grow the channel’s ad revenue. Scott Taunton, EVP and President of News Broadcasting, said: “This is a new business model which gives Piers flexibility to grow his own business by leveraging his position as a true global opinion former.”
