Prince Harry

[ginger_syn]

You choose whether to watch though. It's pretty gross that any of you do.

Its not gross its fairly normal for people to be interested in them now and again I know I am at the moment and truly hope harry and meghan give that rag the financial kicking it deserves and then give half of the winning to charities in foreign country's just to twist the knife.

 

[ignatious]

I don't think it is. But I'm fine with people objecting to blatant racism anyway, I'm just against finding anything about the royal family 'sweet'.

Fair enough. I do think bringing her status into it minimises the discrimination she faces though. As pinkmonkey said, it sets a tone of acceptability for others.

 

[pinkmonkey]

It says it all about the establishment that shes having to bring this case herself and that she's being berated even for that.

Yeah, RF deffo not establishment.

 

[pinkmonkey]

Shes a woman from a dysfunctional family background who married into the RF, that's my point. She's being picked apart for that too.

She's chosen to marry into the RF, that's my point.

She has also married into a dysfunctional family.

Well exactly. It isn't as if this is the usual stalky / unauthorised pictures thing either; she wrote her dad a letter pleading with him to stop talking to the Press because of what it was doing to her, and the MoS felt the need to put that letter on the front page.

Hope she wins loads of money off them and then employs someone to follow Piers Morgan around all day, reporting his movements and criticising everything about him on Twitter.

 

[brogdale]

Isn't making the RF unhappy the single redeeming feature of the RW gutter press?

 

[Winot]

It says it all about the establishment that shes having to bring this case herself and that she's being berated even for that.

It has to be her that brings the case because she owns the copyright in the letter.

 

[weltweit]

How did the "paper" get their hands on the letter?

 

[cupid_stunt]

How did the "paper" get their hands on the letter?

I am not really following the 'story', but I believe her father has been happy to talk to any media that pays him some dosh, so I guess he sold it to them.

 

[agricola]

How did the "paper" get their hands on the letter?

Via her dad, who they have worked with a lot

 

[weltweit]

Wow, that is pretty low of the dad.

 

[brogdale]

Via her dad, who they have worked with a lot

Lawyer on TV last night explained how the father was at liberty to sell the physical paper (that had been gifted to him) of the letter to whomever he chose. Just the composed words that are copyright.
He seem to be acting logically in his own material interests.

But if making the RF unhappy makes the RW press happy, that's got to be a zero-sum game at best, surely?

 

[brogdale]

Psychopaths can't feel happiness; it's all about accumulation for them.
Fuck this feeling sorry for the RF; get a grip.

Who writes someone a letter these days?

 

[weltweit]

Who writes someone a letter these days?

The 3 letters I wrote recently were to relatives of people who had died.

 

[cupid_stunt]

Wow, that is pretty low of the dad.

Yep, total fucking cunt.

 

[agricola]

Wow, that is pretty low of the dad.

Absolutely, though I have a lower opinion of someone who would come into a situation like that and think what a great deal of money could be made from it.

Every letter I’ve ever written has been to a relative of someone who has died.

From that link...

The new cases mean that the royal couple are now pursuing active legal action against half the UK’s national print newspaper proprietors, with only the Telegraph, Guardian and Financial Times unaffected.

Pedant alert - they seem to have forgotten the 'i' newspaper (JPI Media), which out sells them, and I guess easily forgotten - The Morning Star & The New European.

This is really interesting - they’ve been settling all of these out of court up to now, to keep their execs out of court and to avoid making admissions of liability.

If the royals wants to crush the red tops - forcing them to admit commissioning crimes is interesting...

It’s not like the royals need the money or can’t afford the lawyers.

Papers' phone-hacking bill 'could reach £1bn'

Me too. But then again, I suppose everyone is a relative of someone who has died.

They should donate it to RNLI expressly for their overseas work.

John the Baptist.

And God, of course.
