Piers Morgan's Uncensored raises $27M Series B at $145M valuation
What's the deal? Uncensored, the media venture built around former CNNDealroom has a profile for this one. Try Dealroom → anchor Piers Morgan, has raised $27 million in a Series B round, sources say.
The round, announced in June 2026, values the company at $145 million.
Raine Ventures and Antenna GroupDealroom has a profile for this one. Try Dealroom → led the deal. Elisabeth MurdochDealroom has a profile for this one. Try Dealroom → also participated.
Why now? Morgan left his TalkTV show to take the brand independent on YouTube, where it has built a large following through interviews and on-air debates.
Fresh capital lets the venture scale on its own terms, free from a traditional broadcaster.
What could go wrong? Audience-driven media ventures live and die by one personality, and tying a $145 million valuation to a single host carries obvious risk.
Murdoch's involvement is also striking, given that Morgan built much of his career sparring with rival outlets across the media world.
The signal: Dealroom classifies Uncensored as a breakout-stage company, and the round reflects how a YouTube talk show can attract corporate backers like Antenna Group alongside angel investors such as Elisabeth Murdoch. That mix of institutional and individual money signals growing confidence that creator-led political media can command valuations once reserved for traditional broadcasters.
