Good Afternoon Sense-ibles,
Few stories show the UK’s media hypocrisy like their dealings with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
To borrow an American term, the UK media currently feels like a dumpster fire with unsubstantiated stories flying around and accusations being made by all parties. In times like this, bipartisan platforms are very helpful because they are not driven by blind hatred or blind adoration of the royal couple. We discussed the various moving parts of the story yesterday on Common Sense Live so take a look at the commentary below.
