As we reported, Kim Karadashian tired to “break the Internet” on Wednesday by releasing a naked picture of her backside. The Internet, however, didn’t break, but it sure did generate a lot of commentary.
And here’s what Hilary Rosen of CNN had to say:
Agree w @PiersMorgan.Give @KimKardashian a break. She's cool. But I think I my daughter should aspire differently. http://t.co/VGlkAc40vE
— Hilary Rosen (@hilaryr) November 14, 2014
Um, did she not read Piers Morgan’s Daily Mail column before she tweeted this? Here’s the opener (emphasis ours):
The tweet crashed into my feed like a teasing tornado.
‘You can’t un-see this: Kim Kardashian shows off her famous backside,’ it read.
For once, the tease more than lived up to its promise.
As with Man landing on the Moon, Mandela walking free from his prison cell, and Derek Jeter’s winning hit in his last game at Yankee Stadium – it was a photograph that will be forever etched in the memory.
This is what Rosen agrees with? WTH?
Not everyone shares Rosen’s opinion, however:
Piers Morgan compared Kim Kardashian's butt picture to Nelson Mandela being released from prison… I have no words http://t.co/AgEhl3JxlB

@piersmorgan Relegated to a clickbait promoter for the DM. Kama works in fantastic ways.

Morgan then tried to defend his piece:
No, your sense of humour did > RT @JamesMacivor @piersmorgan comparing pic of Kim Kardashian's arse with Mandela walking free? Words fail me
— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) November 12, 2014
But, hey. Kim liked it!
This tweet really WILL #BreakTheInternet …RT @KimKardashian: XOXOX @piersmorgan http://t.co/T64ffuqIa6

Over to you, Hilary. Do you still agree with what Morgan wrote?
