[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really liked her until these bad press reports came out right around Eugenie's wedding. Now it's hard to look at her the same. Whoever did this knew what they were doing-- as for the person who said royal fam has been doing this for decades--- its worse than that-- it's centuries!  I don't think she'll last long, and I do think she is much more of an opportunist than anyone realized when she was first introduced.[/quote]

We’ll probably find out one day that it was the Russians, just doing it for kicks because it was easy given their troll/fake news infrastructure.[/quote]

No, it's the palace, likely Will. The palace is very, very good at this sort of thing. PP who used to like her is exactly the sort of gullible reader they aim for.[/quote]

Or maybe some of it is actually true. [/quote]

You don't understand how media manipulation works. Select kernels of information will be true. Some will be outright fakes. But they'll be mixed up. And often, the leaker(s) will carefully choose what is leaked that is true, leaving out key facts or mitigating details, encouraging the press to draw its own conclusions. The fake information will be vague, deliberately so.

For example, the leak about Kate crying at a dress fitting was a perfect example. Likely Kate was crying. The basic fact was probably true. But the linkage of Kate crying because of MMs behavior was implied, and encouraged. The details are deliberately vague and withheld, so gullible readers will fill in the blanks they want.

What's going on with MM is textbook media manipulation. You are just falling for it. [/quote]

Hm perhaps you don't understand how media manipulation works either. Why would the RF plant the story about MM's mother being invited to Christmas and then declining? How did the RF or Will/Kate benefit from that story that was so clearly untrue? Obviously the only person made to look good in all that was MM which leads one to believe that she's planting stories herself. This also leads one to believe that she's manipulating the media and would justify why the RF might be trying to rein her in. Because we all know what she signed up for by marrying in to that family. Sounds like you're the one falling for it.[/quote]
