Ex-WaPo reporter Taylor Lorenz tells Piers Morgan she felt ‘joy’ over assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson: ‘Feels like justice’

“Why would you be in such a celebratory mood about the execution of another human being?” Morgan asks the journalist. “Aren’t you supposed to be on the caring, sharing left where, you know, you believe in the sanctity of life?”

Lorenz responds that she does “believe in the sanctity of life” but that is ultimately why “I felt, along with so many other Americans, joy, unfortunately.”

Morgan’s jaw drops at the unexpected response, before he hits back: “Joy!? Serious? Joy at a man’s execution?”

Morgan then asks if all the health care executives should be killed, wondering if that would make Lorenz “even more joyful.”

Lorenz breaks into laughter, telling Morgan, “Uh, no.” He then shoots back, “Well, why not? Why are you laughing? You seem to find the whole thing hilarious. A bloke’s been murdered in the street. I don’t find it funny at all.”
