First, let's summarize today's melons to avoid getting lost in the melon fields.
The documentary "The Prince and the Media" is mainly about the relationship between the royal family and the media, and the royal family members.
For example, William and Harry appear to be brothers and sisters, but in private they instruct their subordinates to send "small notes" to the media to smear each other.
For example, Charles struggled to win the headlines, but was cut off by his son Harry.
In addition, because the documentary involves too many royal secrets, the royal family strongly demanded that the film be reviewed before it was broadcast.
But the BBC looked like an iron head, that is, it did not let it, and it was directly broadcast despite obstruction, and it was not long before it was "repaired" by William.
I really didn't expect that a serious royal family could catch a horse in such a bloody way...
In the UK, the word "royal" is equivalent to "traffic", so the major media outlets want to get attention by covering royal news.
For example, when Princess Kate gave birth to her eldest son George, the United Kingdom was reveling in the country, and the major print media launched special editions, and many people who usually did not read the newspaper would also buy a copy to keep as a souvenir.
According to statistics, at that time, the Times alone sold 50,000 copies more than usual.
At the same time, there is such a saying: not afraid of good news, not afraid of bad news, afraid of no news.
The royal family also needs continuous exposure from the media to create a positive image that the people want, and sometimes even takes the initiative to find the media to expose themselves.
For example, in the 1970s, when Britain was in turmoil, many people proposed the abolition of the backward and extravagant royal family.
In order to save the image of the royal family, the royal press secretary asked the BBC to follow the daily life and work of the royal family, which is also the first time that many people have entered the mysterious royal family.
Don't dwell on the slag pixels, after all, it is a 1969 film.
Because of this, no matter what the royal family and the media really think, on the surface, the two have always maintained a "mutually beneficial" relationship.
Here's a gossip:
When Charles was about to marry Camilla, in an interview with the media, the reporter asked William and Harry what he thought of his father's wedding.
enmmm... This group of reporters is also too damaged, and it is not too big to see the hilarity.
In the face of the reporter's question, Harimer was silent, and William said coldly: "Very happy, very happy." ”
However, the three sons of Yang Guess should have all the oss in their hearts at that time: MMP.
Because after the reporter finished asking questions, Charles forgot that he still had a microphone on him and whispered, "Those bastards, I can't stand that person, he hates it so much, really hates it." ”
Later, the reporter discovered this section while sorting out the recording and edited it into the news.
However, this superficial partnership has changed dramatically because of Princess Diana.
I believe that everyone is familiar with the sentence that Princess Diana said in a BBC interview in 1995 that "my marriage has three people, it is too crowded", right?
It was this sentence that hinted at the triangular relationship between her, Charles, and Camilla, and exacerbated Diana's fear, paranoia, and grief, and made her relationship with Charles worse.
Of course, the pain of the mother and the deterioration of the parental relationship also brought an indelible shadow to Harry and William's childhood.
But this interview turned out to be a complete deception.
It turned out that in order to obtain the interview qualification, the BBC reporter actually forged bank documents, so that Diana's brother Spencer thought that the royal staff had collected money and leaked the news of Diana's marriage, which led Spencer to introduce the BBC reporter to Diana and accept an exclusive interview.
Also, Diana did not die immediately when she was in a car accident, but was dying, and if she was treated in time, there may be a glimmer of life.
But the media present did not immediately send her to medical treatment, but indifferently took photos of her dying in the car, and quickly posted the photos to the major British media reports.
In short, in the eyes of William and Harry, the media not only hurt her mother, but also indirectly killed her.
In addition, after Diana's death, William and Harry became the subject of media chase coverage.
In order to dig up more gossip, they even hacked into the communications equipment of William, Harry, and those around them.
For example, in 2004, when Harry and David were dating, the media directly hacked the woman's mailbox, snooped on her medical records, and looked for whether she had an abortion, contracted a sexually transmitted disease, and so on.
It is also because of the media's excessive eavesdropping and snooping, Harry's past relationships have ended in a breakup, because no one can stand the endless interruptions of the media.
It is all of these that William and Harry have resented the media since childhood.
But as William said, "When you experience some psychological trauma, such as the death of your mother at the age of 15, it will make you stronger as a whole, or you may be devastated..."
For William, he chooses not to be crushed and wants to use the media to make himself more powerful, so despite his heart, he will try to maintain a "good relationship" with the media to shape his own image.
For example, there were times when Kate often had small movements in front of the camera (similar to covering her face with her hair), which caused the photographer to not take good pictures.
As a result, the media decided to increase negative coverage in retaliation.
In order to save his image, William found a job as an air ambulance to create a "hard worker", and because of this, his time at the airport increased, and the number of appearances at royal events decreased.
The media, which lacked William's dynamics, began to be dissatisfied again, so diss him as a prince in the report, lazy and derelict in his duties.
William, on the other hand, responded cautiously to air ambulance and royal work, and he tried his best to do his best.
In short, William understands his relationship with the media and knows that he wants to become king, so he has been "strategically thinking about how to solve the problems left by the media" and not leaving a voice for the media.
Unlike his brother William, Harry was quite bold and direct with the media.
For example, when he and Megan fell in love, the media obtained all of Megan's information through private detectives and exposed it in the newspaper.
In order to protect Meghan, Harry directly issued a statement that the diss media had "crossed the line", and this statement immediately sent him to the headlines of the major media.
But when Harry made the statement, his father Charles was visiting Oman and had already booked a headline page a week in advance, harry's statement made Charles's headlines fall apart, and he had to find another page.
Of course, Harry's headline clash with Charles doesn't have to be a conflict between father and son.
Because news between the different members of the royal family is handled by different agencies, such as the Queen's news is handled by Buckingham Palace, Charles and Camilla's news is handled by the Clarence government, and the william and Harry's news is handled by Kensington Palace.
This is equivalent to different artists have different agencies, for the headlines, artists and agencies will inevitably compete, and the newsgroups of the royal family will also conduct "scuffles" for the headlines.
Therefore, the black material mentioned in the documentary around the prince often comes from the staff of another prince.
For example, Meghan and Harry's post-marriage review has been stable, but at 6 months ago, negative news was exposed, saying that Megan wanted to wear an emerald crown a few days before her wedding.
However, the royal family refused Meghan's request on the grounds that the crown had an unfortunate history, and later the matter was learned by Harry, who angrily said: "Meghan wants what she wants, give her." ”
After this matter was exposed, Harry and Meghan's wind ratings suddenly dropped.
The documentary found the reporter who wrote the news at the time, and he said that the black material was not pickpocketed by them, but provided by the staff of Kensington Palace, which inevitably made people guess that it was put by people around Prince William.
The documentary also said that the crown incident is not a minority, and the newsgroups of each member of the royal family are breaking news about each other, and even said, "I think at its peak, the palace was like a nest of poisonous snakes." ”
Of course, the Queen, Charles and William jointly accused the BBC of "creating fake news" for putting black material on each other mentioned in the documentary, and even said that if the BBC did not stop playing the film, it would block the BBC.
Banning the BBC is not about playing, which William and Kate have decided to ban the BBC from playing the Christmas carol concert hosted by Kate, and intend to give the concert to the BBC's nemesis ITV.
I wonder how the BBC will react after seeing this news?
Finally, what the sheep want to say is that the gossip about the royal family is true or false, and it is difficult for us as outsiders to distinguish.
But the BBC deceived Diana in order to get the news, watched Diana dying, and some of the acts such as eavesdropping and snooping were really too foul-smelling and too lacking credibility!
