I agree. FOX's coverage was dreadful. At one point the caption on the screen called Camilla the Dutchess of Cornwall. E.D. Hill was out of her depth covering a live event. Twice she referred to the Queen as the Queen Mother.

BTW Where is Brit Hume? He did not cover the events in Windsor and more surprisingly he was not part of the team covering the death of the Pope

All they did was concentrate on the negative. If I ever get married I will Not let E.D Hill cover my marriage ...

Here in New Zealand I stayed up last night and had the chance to watch the blessing live from the BBC World and Fox News Channel from two channels' feeds. I have to agree, Fox was awful and to this Commonwealth citizen, Fox's short of knowledge on the British royal family was readily apparent (I think the gentleman was E.D. Hills). In contarst, you have to give kudos to the BBC World (they in turn was cross-fed from the local BBC coverage - must be BBC1). Even with the BBC's famous leftist bias, you can still see a certain level of respect towards the Prince of Wales and Camilla.

But the coverage on Ronald Reagan's funeral in June last year was in reverse. No doubt Anglo-American difference in country (different in British vs American perspective) pays a large part to this.
