Piers Morgan has had no problem publicly airing out his grievances over Jon Stewart lately, and he took another jab last night via Twitter.

Morgan claimed that Stephen Colbert’s successful night at the Emmys signified the end of Stewart’s career.

Last night,”The Colbert Report” on Comedy Central won for variety series. In doing so, Colbert ended “The Daily Show’s” decade-long winning streak in the category.

Colbert, however, got his start on “The Daily Show” as a correspondent. His popularity resulted in a spinoff in 2005, and “The Colbert Report,” which follows a very similar format to its predecessor, is now in its ninth season.

What isn’t breaking news is Morgan’s distaste for Stewart, as he earlier tweeted about Stewart’s frequent criticism of CNN coverage.

Oliver is a popular correspondent on “The Daily Show” and filled in as host of the show during the summer to many positive reviews from critics.

Stewart has yet to issue a response.

It's been over for Piers for years.

Ian Hislop and Jon Stewart need to team up to take down this fool once and for all.

He just might "go".

Go home Piers, you are drunk.

When he does I bet it will be fantastic!

is it too late to trade this dude back in for Martin Freeman or Bill Bailey or someone
Whats the UK's return policy?

Twio · Sep 24, 2013

Should we begin the petition to deport Piers again?

akira28 · Sep 24, 2013

Pierce would pay real english british silver to have a twitter fight with Jon Stewart

B-Dubs · Sep 24, 2013

Can we call up Jeremy Clarkson to punch him in the face again?

entremet · Sep 24, 2013

I'm sure our UK friends are happy they don't have deal with Piers anymore.

The Culture Vulture · Sep 24, 2013

Don't care about Piers Morgan but the Colbert win is deserved. The Daily Show has become overly serious in the last year while Colbert Report finds the right balance of comedy and some serious jabs each episode.

outunderthestars · Sep 24, 2013

It is kind of telling that the only way Piers Morgan can be relevant is to attack a more successful show.

vgJames · Sep 24, 2013

No. You guys can keep him, we had him for long enough.

But I'd more than welcome Stewart to our shores since his career is now 'over' in the States.

Sorian · Sep 24, 2013

Ah, if only Piers Morgan could have 10% of Stewart's success

Oh wait, no, no one wants that

Gotchaye · Sep 24, 2013

That's too bad. I liked Jon Stewart. I guess I can still watch one of those network Late Night shows.

Cake Boss · Sep 24, 2013

Piers is just looking for dem hits, hes just like a modern rap artist, just starting a random feud for publicity to sell his album.

They can call in an assist from Jeremy Clarkson

CNN believes that variety is the spice of life.

And people got tired of watching Wolf Blitzer for four hours back to back to back.

Both are horrible. But Wolf is a bigger douche bag than Piers is on the air.

SenorArdilla · Sep 24, 2013

UK, please take him back. We don't want him anymore.

legacyzero · Sep 24, 2013

MAAAAAN I hope Jon does a segment about this. I'm sure he'd love a change to rip CNN a new one, consider he's all over Fox News most of the time. (Rightfully so.)

Risible · Sep 24, 2013

Stephen Fry once defined countryside as the act of "murdering Piers Morgan."

It's not relevant to this discussion, I just love that story.

Tears Moron, more like.

Pretty easy to formulate a comeback...

Stewart: "If it's over for me because I only won 10 Emmys in a row instead of 11, where does that leave Piers Morgan, who hasn't won any Emmys?"

explodet · Sep 24, 2013

I think this is some kind of strange gambit to distract Stewart so he doesn't go and destroy Crossfire again.

Stewart's involvement/commentary could actually stir ratings for the reboot.

Big Baybee · Sep 24, 2013

Piers don't want that beef.

dekline · Sep 24, 2013

Defyler · Sep 24, 2013

I'd take the Daily show over Colbert any day. They're a bit apple and oranges though.

wenis · Sep 24, 2013

I hear this guy is a twat but never really investigated why people think he's such a twat.

Derrick01 · Sep 24, 2013

Does stewart even have to acknowledge this tool? He is so beneath Jon's scope that they shouldn't bother. Keep tearing CNN as a whole a new asshole though.

Mr. Pointy · Sep 24, 2013

Is this the white people equivalent of the Eminem and Benzino beef?

reilo · Sep 24, 2013

Jon single-handedly took down Crossfire, he can take this tool down, too.

Tinkleberry · Sep 24, 2013

ya it's over for Jon Stewart, and that's why he gets paid more than all the late night hosts.

it's back

Rocket Punch · Sep 24, 2013

Does anyone know the ratings of Steward vs Morgan?

Piers is such a child.

Pop-O-Matic · Sep 24, 2013

Daily Show is reruns tonight, so I guess Piers was right.

Jon Stewart: 1962-2013

R.I.P.I.P.

thecouncil · Sep 24, 2013

Makes a good point about Oliver though.

CNN announced on June 26, 2013, that the new version would re-launch in the fall of 2013, with panelists Newt Gingrich, S. E. Cupp, Stephanie Cutter, and Van Jones.[2]

I think another roast is in order.
