We've been ungenerously 'treated' to just such over the past day...yes, even right here in God's Own. C/o none other than - surprise, surprise! - ye mainstream media...aka NZ's 6 p.m. Weeknightly TV1 News Bulletin...both tonight and especially yestereve...
Yes, their 'lead item' on the travel exploits of Prince Harry and Princess/Duchess Megan in Fiji on Weds Oct the 24th would simply have to take the cake/prize...for the most meaningless, unadulterated twaddle we've seen displayed so prominently in quite awhile...and that's surely saying something...
No, I'm not a Republican - far from it in fact (especially not these days, that's for sure) - but neither am I a fawning Royalist sycophantically drooling at each tantalizing tidbit of info on their every move...
Talk about bread and circuses!
Yes, a hands-down, no-holds-barred, out-and-out *win and away for TV1 News (last night and tonight): for the most tabloidish, inconsequential beat-up of Megan Markle's apparent 'no-show' - to Fijian (and foreign) media - yesterday as she was suddenly and unceremoniously - inexplicably! - whisked away by royal minders into a limousine (or the like) in Suva.
*And in recent memory, to boot. And that's sayin' somethin', it really is...
