Piers Morgan, a man who has always had trouble with criticism, responded to a brutal Saturday burn from J.K. Rowling by saying he's "never read a single word of Harry Potter."
But, Piers, what about that opinion piece, hm?
It all started when Rowling declared her joy at seeing Piers Morgan decimated on live TV by Jim Jefferies on Real Time with Bill Maher.

Morgan did not take kindly to this.

But Rowling wasn't about to let that slide. First, she critiqued his logic -- if you never read books from authors you feel might criticize you in the future, your literary experiences will be both stressful and difficult.

Then Rowling retweeted this gem: a 2015 Daily Mailcolumn from Morgan comparing Lance Armstrong to Lord Voldemort. The piece draws heavily from the Harry Potter books, analyzing Voldemort's motivations, history and crippling fear of death -- oh, and it sure features a lot of quotes.

And, because each Twitter spree must be mightier than the last, Rowling also pointed out that she beat out Morgan for book of the year at the 2006 British Book Awards.
Kind of a deep cut, Jo, but we'll allow it.

To be fair, Morgan is probably exhausted from a long week: Wikipedia recently deemed the Daily Mail an "unreliable" source of information.
Better luck next time, dude.
