MEDIA COVERAGE OF BIDEN VS. QUEEN/KING

Sadly, only the cable stations carried Biden’s speech on the crisis our democracy is in. The three major networks did not!

But they carried King Charles’ speech. And it’s been non-stop coverage since the Queen died on many stations.  Certainly, its fine to honor her death, show a program about her life, and carry the funeral.  But we don’t even give our own President a half hour’s air time but we give the Queen/King of England days worth of coverage, maybe weeks as her funeral isn’t until the 19th?  It’s just too much!

I doubt when one of our prior President’s dies, that it will get weeks of coverage.   I thought we broke away from the monarchy over 240 years ago?
