I don't have a problem with hearing about a baby being due that's somewhere in line for the throne. Monarchy has been news for centuries.
I don't like hearing "They have announced the pregnancy before Kate has even reached the "safe" period". This was on morning radio the other day and I am one who thinks there is no "safe" period in pregnancy.
As for news reporting I do dislike the news media being so lazy that they "report" on a press release they have been fed about the latest bra (or other consumer item)that's been developed or some new real estate that's for sale.
