It led to hundreds of complaints
Ex-ITV star Eamonn Holmes has opened up on what he believes to be the reason he and wife Ruth Langsford were sacked from This Morning after 15 years. In November 2020, ITV confirmed the pair would no longer be making an appearance on the popular daytime TV programme.
But now, in an explosive interview with GB News, Eamonn has claimed he was booted out by bosses for his outspoken comments on 5G, reports the Mirror. Prior to leaving, Ofcom received more than 750 complaints about Eamonn questioning why the "mainstream media" had shut down alleged links between 5G and the coronavirus outbreak.In Tuesday's tell-all interview, Eamonn claimed he was sacked "without warning" and ITV bosses were "never kind" to him.
Revealing exactly what he said, Eamonn recalled, "I said, 'You should always be free to question the narrative.'" Apparently, that was the equivalent of me saying, '5G spreads Covid '," Eamonn said. "After taking into account the co-presenter's firm rejection of the claims earlier in the programme, the discussion being about 'fake news' and the presenter clarifying his comments on air the following day, we have decided to issue guidance to ITV and its presenters." Eamonn blamed viewers for "misinterpreting" his comment and told the Mirror in 2022: " I still stand by those remarks because not once did I say 5G spreads coronavirus.
