Piers Morgan Exits Rupert Murdoch’s Media Empire & Takes Control Of ‘Uncensored’ YouTube Channel
Piers Morgan is exiting Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp media empire after three years to take ownership of his Uncensored YouTube channel.
Deadline first revealed last September that Morgan was unlikely to renew his News Corp deal. Now the former CNN presenter and News Corp have confirmed his departure.
Morgan has agreed to take control of Uncensored through his Wake Up Productions production outfit in exchange for a four-year revenue-sharing deal with News Corp.
“I have had a great time working back at News and am delighted that we will continue to be partners,” Morgan told Sky News. “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.”
