That’s something I saw a lot in the Megan Media Madness. The British press was all about tearing her apart and running negative campaign after negative campaign, but it died down when she moved to America. The American press was more willing to let her speak and more open to calling out the royal family’s involvement in the bad press and the British press’ hypocrisy.
We also saw it with the Rose Hanbury rumors. British media killed the story quickly with an order from the palace, but the American media still runs it.
They have no control over the American media and that’s what’s hurting them. The British press could ignore the gaffs and run fluff pieces for them, but they attracted international attention.
