GB News presenters Bev Turner and Andrew Pierce clashed live on air today as they expressed their views on the allegations surrounding Russell Brand. The comedian and TV presenter is facing accusations of sexual assault from four separate women, including one who was 16 at the time, dating back to the height of his fame between 2006 and 2013. During Britain's Newsroom, Pierce brought up a tweet sent by Turner over the weekend in which she said Brand was being “attacked“ by the “Establishment media“ for his outspoken political views. She added: “Keep going. This proves you are winning. You're a hero.“ Reacting to the tweet during their mid-morning show, Pierce said: “Bev, that is shameful. You have dismissed in one tweet, a four-year investigation by the Sunday Times, the Times and Channel 4 as, contemptuously, the 'Mainstream Media'. On GB News we put free speech first - even when we disagree with each other. Especially when we disagree with each other. Watch Bev Turner and Andrew Pierce's full debate above.
