Novelist JK Rowling and TV personality Piers Morgan were locked in a public fight on Twitter after he defended Donald Trump's travel ban during his appearance on a talk show.
Morgan accused Rowling of being "superior, dismissive and arrogant", and the writer attacked what she described as the "fact-free, amoral, bigotry-apologism of (a) celebrity toady".
It all started when the Harry Potter author retweeted a video of Morgan's appearance on an episode of "Real Time With Bill Maher" during which he was shut down by Australian comedian Jim Jefferies. The latter swore at the TV personality for claiming that Trump's controversial immigration order against seven Muslim-majority countries is not a "Muslim ban" – reported Entertainment Weekly.
