Following Piers Morgan's comments on Duchess of Sussex
In the UK, Piers Morgan says it's a "resounding victory for free speech" after the British television regulator decided TV show, 'Good Morning Britain' did not break broadcasting rules regarding his comments about the Duchess of Sussex.
50,000 people complained, including Ms. Markle, after he said he didn't believe claims made by Meghan to Oprah Winfrey during an interview.
Ofcom has ruled his remarks had the "potential" to be offensive, but were challenged on the programme.
