While everyone has a right to their opinion, I do have the final say on whether a comment is appropriate or not. If you don't like that, then go to Twitter. My board, my rules.

While I understand some people read about this saga and comment for entertainment purposes, there is a time to be witty and snarky, and writing about and discussing a funeral is not such a place. Yes, I could have been more cutting, but to me that would be disrespectful.

My articles and posts are my views and opinions, but also serve as a record of what has happened in real time during the Sussex saga. There are things I don't wish to write about, but history needs to know which media outlets enabled the saga, what they did, and what they said. Ignoring them is one thing, but we must also accept that they play a role in prolonging this situation.

Some may consider the criticisms of Harry's behaviour in the church 'petty', but they are not. There is a high standard of behavior expected in church, and that was not acceptable. If he had been a young child with his parents, they would have reprimanded him. Etiquette and decorum are important elements during such ceremonies, and if you thought that was acceptable, then it is apparent you have low standards and poor manners.
