Confession time: we were hoping to enjoy a Monday free of Piers Morgan, especially since he’s been hyping his newest column all day, bracing himself for the “onslaught” before it was published.
My new @MailOnline column is about the N-word. Posting soon, and bracing myself for the onslaught.

Never had a bigger reaction to anything I've written before anyone's actually read it. My view of the N-word, posting soon on @MailOnline

So, Morgan writes about the N-word; in particular, the need for blacks to “kill it themselves”? Feel free to click on over to The Daily Mail and read the whole thing. It’s difficult to top this excerpt, though.
And yes, @piersmorgan wrote this. Real. Life. pic.twitter.com/KLaFHPuZRp

@deray Wow. Why not say "lynch it" or "work it to death on plantations" or "chain it up & sell it into servitude"? WTF @piersmorgan?

Before you continue, you should know that Piers Morgan “loves Black Twitter.”
I love Black Twitter, too > RT @mrpianoguy Black Twitter is doing so well right now with outrage against @piersmorgan I love you all so much

We’re sure he loves singer John Legend too, who seemed not at all impressed with Morgan’s column.
ya'll better thank @piersmorgan for providing that simple, straightforward solution to racism. So brilliant. why didn't we think of this???

I wasn't offering a 'solution to racism' @johnlegend – I was suggesting something that might help a bit. Am I wrong?
— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) November 11, 2014
@piersmorgan I can think of countless things that would help more.
— John Legend (@johnlegend) November 11, 2014
So can I, but that doesn't mean what I suggest is wrong > RT @johnlegend @piersmorgan I can think of countless things that would help more.
— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) November 11, 2014
@piersmorgan what you suggested was actually useless and directed the blame for racism on the victims' use of a word. focus elsewhere.
— John Legend (@johnlegend) November 11, 2014
@johnlegend if you think that's what I was saying, I respectfully suggest you read the column again.

That should give the rest of Twitter time to come up with a hashtag to reward Morgan for his effort. How about #PiersKnowsAll?
