NYT NEWSROOM TURMOIL OVER PRINCE CHARLES GAY RUMOR
Drudge Report ^ | 11/07/03 | Matt Drudge

Posted on 11/07/2003 1:43:48 PM PST by nickcarraway

Top editors at the NEW YORK TIMES panicked and ordered a story killed after London-based reporter Sarah Lyall filed a dispatch alleging rumors of Prince Charles and a sexual affair with one of his closest advisers!

The story appeared on the TIMES's internet website for 20 minutes -- before top editors ordered it immediately removed, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

Looks like the perfumed Prince is on his way to the YMCA.

Well, not quite- one of his advisors is gay in the film. One of my favorite movies, I actually just rewatched it last night (To Play the King).

"Remeber that nice man, the one who used to talk a lot about the 'classless society'? He had to go of course, in the end."

It's newly released on DVD in North America. Buy it. It's worth the price. Francis Urquhart is my hero, sort of.

At this point, I suspect the only way to save the monarchy is for Prince Charles to renounce any right to the throne.

Didn't the Queen quickly drop the suit against Diana's butler when it became clear that he would reveal certain information?

What information could it be?

Wasn't he the villain? I think he was supposed to be. I didn't quite see it that way. If you could take out the murders (which I always thought were contrived) he'd be a truly great hero. As things stand, I view him as a tragic hero.

That is part 1 of the story. Part two is the Charles guy "buddy" raped somebody and the Palace guard is covering it up. Burrel supposedly have some audio tape that he is being coy about.

I notice his eyes are now brown. Somebody must have topped off his oil.

You'd think a royal could afford to get his teeth fixed.
