VIEWERS have questioned Laura Kuenssberg's decision not to discuss an article written by Jeremy Clarkson about Meghan Markle.

“A lot of the time we were given more positive stories about Harry and Meghan from the royal story officially.” “We had lots of dealings with the press officers at the time for Harry and Meghan and in particular I remember some of my dealings with them going back to when they were still in the family”, she said. Asked about reports of a “conspiracy” against the couple by Buckingham Palace and the media, Newton said this did not stack up. Upon posting the list of guests appearing on Sunday’s show, many urged the broadcaster to “please ask” about the article while another said the article was an “outstandingly vicious and hateful” piece. However, Kuenssberg did not ask any of the panel about Clarkson’s piece, which has been described on social media as “vicious” and “misogynistic”. The Sun’s editor Victoria Newton appeared on the BBC’s Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg where she was asked about a series of front pages reporting Prince Harry and Markle want an “apology” over the way they have been treated.

Violent misogynistic fantasies like Jeremy Clarkson's are not new ... (The Guardian)

The diatribe against Meghan shows how low the rightwing media is willing to go, writes Guardian columnist Zoe Williams.

He would have us believe that he’s merely returning to a freer, more honest time, when blokes could be blokes in the pages of newspapers, without the threat of “cancellation”. All that matters is that a hate figure has been created, a shortcut, a shibboleth, a means by which bigots can identify one another and give voice to their prejudice, without fear of censure. It’s all so obvious, that’s what is galling: an obvious bid to sow division, to spur hatred, to justify misogynistic fantasies under the cover of a splenetic royalism, to dress up hate speech as fair comment.
