It was with this headline that the UK site, The Royalist introduced our column of 12 March,2007 on the UK’s Channel 4 attack on Prince Charles. The Royalist continued:
‘He’s never committed a crime for which he could be tried by law. Yet tonight, the Prince of Wales is facing what many within Clarence House clearly deem to be little more than ‘trial by television’.
The broadcast of a Channel Four investigation into Charles’s life and work has resulted in much debate and enraged many of the Prince’s supporters.
So is tonight’s documentary on Charles: The Meddling Prince the right way to treat the future King? Professor David Flint of Australians For Constitutional Monarchy firmly believes it is not."
