[See NewsBusters for more.] Leave it to liberal Tina Brown to turn a discussion about the woes of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle into one about the “racist” politics of “Brexit England.” The former Newsweek editor appeared on CBS This Morning, Thursday, to discuss the British tabloids and the royal family. Co-host Anthony Mason offered Brown the opportunity to bash her home country by wondering, “What role do you think race plays in this in the UK media?” The journalist, who has worked at the New Yorker and Vanity Fair, snapped, “I think there is racism, and a rising misogyny, by the way, in the U.K.” Offering this out-of-left-field assessment, she continued, “I think that Brexit England is an ugly place, actually. There's a lot of anger. A lot of misogyny. A lot of sort of people in a kind of [a]... hatred of foreigners.”
