Kanye West calls Piers Morgan ‘Karen’ in interview about antisemitic comments During the interview, Morgan asked West if he regretted tweeting his “death con 3” comments. “Any whisper of antisemitism is dangerous and needs to be addressed and taken down.” Kardashian’s post on Monday 24 October West’s ex-wife Kim Kardashian also issued a tweet condemning antisemitism.
