This week Mark Steyn became the latest star to leave GB News, following a lengthy leave of absence for health reasons. The TV shock jock has made a name for himself with his diatribes about the Covid vaccine. But it seems that not all at the channel welcomed Steyn’s multiple Ofcom investigations. The presenter uploaded a resignation video on Monday, complaining that TV bosses wanted to make him financially liable for any fines imposed because of his show’s output and calling CEO Angelos Frangopoulos an ‘habitual liar.’
And it seems that Steyn is not done yet unloading on his former colleagues. Announcing the launch of his first ‘post cardiac Steyn Shows‘ on Wednesday, his website attacked the ‘duplicitous weasels of GB News’ and sneered at the channel’s supposed ratings. ‘At one point yesterday GB News was down to 700 viewers. As Mark observed, it would be more cost-effective to invite them all round to the car park at Watford Gap’.
