Exposing the lies and free thought about the documentary series
The story that the documentary depicted about Harry and Meghan is absolutely true in my opinion. I believe them all the way and support their decision in using the documentary as a means to accurately portray themselves to the public.
We have witnessed Harry and Meghan distance themselves in the way he behaves towards the general public. The documentary made mention to how Meghan thought that Harry was a bit of an 'odd-ball' and the docu-series went in and took this information further.
To begin the Royal family has ownership and control over multiple news one of which is the 'The Times'. This means that these particular news sources are allowed to make any news headlines about the royal family and they will not be condemned nor questioned regarding their headlines. This is an issue to begin with because the news outlets main aim is to attract readers to generate sales through the use of web traffic.
What does this mean for the royal family?
This is very challenging for Harry and Meghan because they do not have this sense of control over how the news media outlets may portray Harry an Meghan.
Harry had his experience with the 'Independent Times' where he was going to a fancy-dress party and decided to wear a Nazi costume. This caused backlash on his image and highlighted that many people have a negative bias on the royal family with 'The Telegraph' referring to the royal family as racist.
The royal family do have challenges to face when keeping up with appearances and maintaining etiquette when dealing with people and how they appear to the media.
