If you aren't interested, don't read them...same as with any other article on the net. If they don't get enough clicks, they will go away sooner or later.

I could care less, it still amazes me that anyone other than British citizens give a rats ass what the royals are up to.

Agreed, but MSN had an article yesterday about the Trump Org. investigation over illegal payments from the campaign organization to women was ended with no one charged, and today it is not on the main page or their political page... Amazing how msm can hide the news when they want to and keep old anto Trump news segments up on the main page for weeks. How are democrats ever going to be properly informed Trump is not what the media makes him out to be? Deocratic voters will be even more confused in 2020 after the election results show he won re-election..........

And by the way, I feel sorry for the former Meghan Markle. (I forget her new formal title) I imagine the publicity she faces 24/7 is much more than she ever though humanly possible.

There is always the possibility the investigative team plans of bringing their findings to a grand jury. Until then, or until their findings are presented to the public, there will pretty much be silence.

I think a lot of the news is specifically tailored to us based on our browsing history. I hardly ever see anything on the English royalty but I see tons of articles about the Pope and that missing girl from the 1970s. I also see tons of reviews for SUVs, since I did a lot of research online before buying one earlier this year.

People obsess over lots of things here and abroad - like how big the Kardashians ass is from day to day. No difference in my eyes. Read if you chose and skip if you chose. Now I'll be getting ass ads for about a week. I said something about chemical companies in a post about processed food and all of a sudden DuPont ad shows up on my FB

You know, as I think about this, we citizens of the USA do indeed have "royalty".. Oh yes, they do not bear titles like king or queen or duke or dutchess, but they are here just the same. And, like royalty of old they look down at the rest of us with grand ideas of how we peons should live out our lives. (never mind that they don't have to live by those rules) Here they are professional politicians, rock stars, sports stars, or members of that crew who inhabit Hollywood. Just the musings of an old fart who spends too much time wandering among the "jackalopes" of Wyoming

Ahhhh, look at all the enlightenment achieved from a little reference to the legendary "jackalope". And, just for the record, that little ditty about home on the range" ? You do all get the double meaning there? Right? All those hungry starving settlers? They mixed all sorts of stuff together...….in a pot...on the ole "range" …..

We haven't seen much of Meghan Markle..... Duchess of Sussex She goes past in a carriage every now and then...... or stands in a window.......... but the pressure isn't on her as much.
Just needs to say the right things to the right people and wear something nice. Then she can go home. The "Firm" is big business though....... and if she and Harry go somewhere abroad to represent the Queen........ It will be quite hard work. Seems to be quite good at speeches.... and that's a bonus.
