Cornel West Accuses Piers Morgan of Racism in Fiery Debate Over Israel-Gaza Conflict

The heated exchange focused on media framing and the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, sparking intense reactions from both sides.

During a televised debate, Cornel West labeled Piers Morgan as 'racist' for allegedly prioritizing Jewish student issues over Palestinian civilian casualties.
Morgan refuted the racism allegations, citing his prior critical interview with an IDF spokesman about Israel's military actions.
The debate highlighted differing perspectives on the Israel-Hamas war, with accusations of media bias and underreporting of the humanitarian impact in Gaza.
Pro-Palestinian protests at U.S. colleges and the response to them were also a central topic, reflecting broader tensions about the conflict.
Critics argue that Morgan's program gives uneven attention to pro-Palestinian voices, a claim that adds to the controversy surrounding his coverage.
