Piers Morgan kept interrupting TV guest's take on women's rights — so she told him to 'shut up and listen'

For generations, abortion rights have been a focal point of political debate in the United States, with many advocating for restrictions while others work to preserve access. Now, with Donald Trump back in the spotlight, some fear that the fight to maintain reproductive rights may intensify. In a recent exchange on Piers Morgan’s YouTube show Uncensored, journalist Francesca Fiorentini discussed the serious impact of bureaucratic barriers on women’s health. When Morgan attempted to interject, Fiorentini firmly shut him down, urging him to "shut up and listen."

In the excerpt uploaded on X by @GenoVeno73, she can be heard speaking about women's rights. "It's happening right now," she said. "People are bleeding out in their cars from having miscarriages, that should be treated and attended to. They are losing their ability to ever have children again because hospital workers are more concerned with bureaucracy than people's lives." This is when Morgan tries to interrupt her, to which Fiorentini says, "Piers don't interrupt me as you're talking about abortion rights and you say you support a woman's right to choose, so shut up and listen." She then talks about how it's important to hear people, especially women who talk from their own experiences.

"As somebody who is a mom, as someone who could have died herself, okay, it's time for you to shut up and listen to the women who are telling you loud and clear that we are dying out here, we are putting our lives on the line out here. Women in red states, women in blue states, women all over, it doesn't matter whether we love Trump or we hate Trump, the effect of overturning Roe V Wade is the same, our lives are on the line, okay," she says before the video ends. 

The comments section quickly became a mix of polarized opinions on Fiorentini’s message. Many praised her for standing up to Morgan. "More women should take this attitude. Shut up and listen! Don't you dare talk over me? I'm Speaking!!!" wrote @1123page. "This election is about and for the Ladies. Time to Man The F*** Up and support the women in our lives and our country. We will, by default, become a better nation when we do. So Do It," added @funkhouse1978. "This was both beautiful and necessary," wrote @BelongingMeans.

On the other hand, many comments took issue with Fiorentini’s statements. "What an unhinged lunatic "People are bleeding out in their cars from miscarriages!!!" People like this are the reason why I can't vote for the left, it just too deranged, everythings a fantasy," wrote @Trollinthewebs. "If you tell a lie enough times, it doesn't become true. Women are NOT bleeding out in their cars and exceptions for medical risk of the mother are allowed in all 50 states," added @wcjames63.

Another person @lillyjacklou wrote, "Then, make it law that women can only have abortions if the mother's life is in danger. Women are claiming that is the reason for them wanting abortions. Let them have that, but not use abortions as birth control. If they don't want the baby, give it up for adoption. Don't murder your baby. If grown women can't figure out birth control, then keep your legs closed."
