+100 That being said, I hope they secured consent from the children and parents prior to the event. It sounds like they did not. |
Oh please. You sound like a really sad and desperate person. News photographers took these pictures, because Meghan and Harry didn't seem to take their own photographers with them. I'm not on Meghan's socials, but I'd be willing to bet she didn't post these on her own social media (feel free to prove me wrong). All of which is in complete contrast to Kate having her own official photographers take the pictures of Liz Hatton and then posting them on KP's royal Instagram. Another thing. The last time Meghan was photographed with children, people like you sent the parents hate tweets and hate mail. So I'm willing to bet the parents of these children signed documents agreeing to it. At least I would hope so. But then again, these pics seem to be from Australian media, and it seems like maybe the Sussexes had no official control, so who knows how that played out. |
The press corps took these pictures, not the Sussexes, who didn't bring their own photogs. Again, the Sussexes had no control over what pictures were taken, where they were posted, or if consent was obtained. You people are nuts. |
For those of you who are new to this, there's a whole campaign among the haters that Meghan and Harry are duty-bound to show us their childrens' faces. So they can persecute the children, and feed their conspiracy theories about whether these are actually the Sussexes' children (yes, Meghan's fake pregnancy "moonbump" is a real thing among some haters). It's absolutely disgusting. Good for Meghan and Harry for never giving in. |
The only person here who sounds unhinged is you. I'm not "nuts" for calling out hypocrisy. And you would lose your bet that Meghan didn't put the sick kids on her socials. Both Instagram & sussex.com, probably more. They purposely went to the hospital to get publicity. I'm willing to bet if they had got there and there were no British press, M&H would have delayed the meet and greet while they called the DM, Sun, Post, all the press. And - she just started a new grift this week literally marketing every item of clothing she wore to the hospital and elsewhere. She NEEDED to be in photos in order to sell her fashion choices. She wasn't going to waste a visit to kids with cancer and not be able to profit off selling copies of the clothes she wore! |
New poster to this thread, feel free to shriek otherwise. I agree with the poster you’re attacking. They are correct, and I am also far more liberal than the Sussexes, with a voting record and views that squares with that. |
Again, where's the hypocrisy? Meghan didn't have her people take the photos, and she didn't post them. I just went to Sussex.com and didn't see any pics. I'm not scrolling through Instagram, so if you want to prove your case, you need to post the link. Your nonsense about delaying an event while they call the press makes you look ridiculous. Reread your post and ask yourself if you think you sound sane. |
The post at the top of this discussion deliberately cut off the posts that preceded it. But you can go back to 8:43 and 8:57 and read things like this: "England imported a ton of poverty, culture clashes and dependency over the past decade. That is a political issue, not a royal family issue." And this: "Maybe the government can do something about it like curbing rampant immigration. King Charles is king in name only." I'm liberal and I fell asleep during Meghan's show. But I recognize MAGA and racism when I see it, including on DCUM. And that's what drives a lot of the Meghan hate. |
They took their own photographer etc to be able to control what was published. So they absolutely had control over what pics were snapped, who it was distributed to, etc. “And far from 'not much media', the couple are taking a reporter and photographer from the Press Association (which files to all national and international media) to provide ample coverage of their four days in three cities (Melbourne, Canberra and Sydney).” https://www.womanandhome.com/life/royal-news/prince-harry-meghan-markle-australia-visit/ |
This is really important. The so-called liberals here just walk right past the horrific behavior directed against Meghan, Harry, and their children. |
Apparently they had their photographer (which they handpicked and traveled with and then decided which pics to distribute to press) post them to Sussex royal account, which is weird. They aren’t supposed to use that since it’s linked from HRH account. I’m not checking because I don’t want to ruin my lunch. |
It seems you could be wrong. It may drive a bit of the hate (?) but overwhelmingly, it seems their behavior is what drives the negative opinions. Not racism or maga. Sorry to disappoint. |
Wow, you spend a lot of time on this. If you want to prove your point, have you got any pictures of the cancer children that came from this Press Association person as opposed to Aussie media? You clearly have time to spend on this. And ONCE AGAIN: how is this any different from Kate posing with child cancer victim Liz Hatton in front of her official royal photographer? It's not. You whining about "hypocrisy" bombs, because Meghan is completely within her rights to shield her children from the craziness of the moon bump theorists. And there's no hypocrisy about earning passive income from what she wears, because the Sandringham Agreement was quite clear that the Sussexes are free to do both charity AND earn their own income. I can hear it now, "but, but, she posted something she wore while hugging children." And? |
NP- If you look at her official Instagram, her latest video is full of children they met while in Australia. |
Stats? Are you the person who thinks they can do math? You can't just make stats up. Please provide a link. Because it overwhelmingly DOES seem like a lot of the hate comes from conservatives who frequent the Mail comments, and on Twitter. And there's solid evidence that at least one of the two (three?) haters here on DCUM is anti-immigration. Which is ... not a liberal stance. |
