The Brits can trash Harry all they want to. They have freedom of the press there too. Trashing is what tabloids do.
I just hate to see our own press becoming so sensationalist and gossipy. British-style tabloids appeal to everyone's worst instincts: hatred and the neurotic desire to feel superior to others.
You can respect Britain and the monarchy without this kind of malignant, gossipy poison. Some might consider me a borderline anglophile. I play this whenever I feel weak. Of course there's a new version now but the rendition is not as grand.
It isn’t just the tabloids. It’s all over mainstream news in Britain and Australia. This couple have seriously insulted their families and the people and their values, and as others have suggested, they seem to want to bring the whole thing down.
They are also insulting US as Americans.
While I agree with you about tabloids, Harry and Meghan are the ones spewing malicious gossipy poison and lying about the RF and stabbing them in the back. That’s why they are so hated.
I suppose one main reason many people are interested in them is many families have a Meghan. These manipulative duplicitous self-centered people create all kinds of drama and destroy families. Yet out in public they pretend to be such wonderful charitable people, it’s nauseating.
I think the families harmed by Meghans get comfort from seeing that many others see through Meghan (and Harry) and commiserate with the maligned RF. Because in ordinary real life, these Meghans often pass for oh-so-special-dear-me people, but are pure poison to those closest to them who must grit their teeth and bear it while the Meghans spread nasty lies about them to cover up their own horrid behavior.
