King's comments come as Morgan has been drawing attention
since the Newtown massacre by forcefully calling for tougher gun laws, bringing
him into conflict with gun rights activists who appear as guests on his show.
He has, for instance, called Gun Owners of America president
Larry Pratt "dangerous," "stupid" and an "idiot,"
and aired a contentious interview with conspiracy theorist radio host Alex
Jones earlier this week, who led a petition to have Morgan deported back to
England over his calls for stronger gun laws.
King also lamented the state of cable news shows in general,
stating, "It's not the quality that counts anymore. It's how loud did you
yell, how vituperative can you be."
In response to King's comments, Morgan tweeted simply,
"Zzzzzzz."
