Piers Morgan

I wrote a column for the Mail, actually, about the use of the N-word.

And the Washington Post did a huge report on this and said that every day on Twitter, as it was then-

The N-word was used half a million times, but almost exclusively by young African-American men.

Well, they would argue, and I understood the argument.

They've reclaimed that word.

What do you mean?

I mean, that's what you're saying, dude.

The standards have to be absolute or they're not standard.

I was about to make my argument.

Sorry, you're getting me so wound up.

No, no, but I actually made the point in the column that I don't think that works.

I don't think you reclaim it.

What you actually do is you empower genuine racists to say, well, if they're using that word, I'm going to use it.

And so I felt it was an entirely self-defeating reclamation of that offensive word.

I would say the same to gay people.

If you constantly use the F word in your own... What's the F word?

You know what?

We've just been saying it.

If you want to keep saying it, you keep saying it.

I'm not going to keep saying it.
