Boyle recently hit out on Twitter about newspapers, telling his followers to avoid buying them during the coronavirus.
This naturally angered Morgan, causing him to hit out at the comedian on live TV this morning.
Boyle posted to his 2.7 million followers: “Many British newspapers are on the verge of going bust.
“So there’s never been a more important time to not buy one.”

While this tweet garnered a divided response from his followers, Morgan was not happy at all.
Speaking out on GMB this morning, he exclaimed: “Frankie Boyle, the so-called comedian, tweeted a couple of days ago ‘British newspapers are on the verge of going bust, so there’s never been a more important time to not buy one.'”
Piers condemned Boyle’s comments, calling him a “disgusting human”.
He went on: “This is a guy who’s taken money from newspapers to write columns, so he’s a flaming hypocrite as well as a disgusting human being who wants to see people lose their jobs.
“I hope that when he comes sniffing for a column in one of the papers, he’s done them in The Sun and others, I hope they say ‘No, no thanks.'”
With no sign of stopping, Piers continued his rant by going on to say: “When it really mattered, when we were really suffering as an industry, you actively told two and a half million people not to buy newspapers to put us out of business.
“People shouldn’t forget stuff like that.”
Morgan has been eager to get his point across a lot this week.
Yesterday viewers saw him hitting out at Twitter trolls for attacking a professor on the site.
Speaking out about the event, he guffawed: “Really sad to watch that. She’s a brilliant expert in her field.
“I’m glad she has now come back today and is going to keep talking out. She doesn’t have a political view – it’s not about politics!”
“It’s just a government being a government,” Piers went on. “It’s nothing to do with how you voted. It doesn’t matter.
