Huge piece out from The Times/Sunday Times and Channel 4 5 months in the making looking into every single plot of land controlled by the duchies. How has the NHS ended up paying millions to Charles' duchy? How about the Ministry of Justice who pays William's duchy 1.5 million pounds a year for the prison on Dartmoor. That and so much more.

Nice work! Subscription monarchy along netflix model till abolition would end this sick dynasty Reperation to victims along slave owners reperation Scheme finalised in 2015 by the bank of england might be more effective than this smoke and mirrors travesty
More PROPAGANDA for the poor Suffering British Subjects. Failed King Charles is SQUEEZING MILLIONS OUT OF CHARITIES, NHS, ARMY AND IS SLUMLORD
It could be a $1 donation. They have done that before and the press claimed it was huge
dislike the British Royals because they are not transparent and have never been..
The whole "royal quagmire" is an insult to the British and commonwealth population....
🙄 oh Charles, never mind the bollocks… Where’s the reporting?!? Thank you for calling this for what it is, Meredith. Nothing but PR Fakery.
MY GOD! Y CAN'T THEY JUST GO AWAY 🙄 😒
💯💯💯💯👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻right on target ❤❤❤🔥🔥😘😘
😒siddown charlie 🪑
It's true( LOL) why not invest the money in The Next Generation in the UK?
You are the best
Why do the royal family takes the UK taxpayers for fools. Wake up UK citizens demolished the monarchy...this is 2024 not 1800's
Thanks Meredith! Thank you for calling out the nonsense of that Ungodly family. All they do is gaslight people. Everything is PR for them!
Charles did that when he was the prince of Wales. It was done in Barbados where Lionel Richie was named ambassador of the Princes' Trust.
The late Queen used to what Charles. She had the commonwealth trust.
Thanks for calling them out on their misleading headlines.
I knew it! The miserly slumlord, is more than likely, squeeznigly extorting his, “Big donation,” from the backs and businesses of others, or another stunt for optics. How misleading.🙄
TAXPAYERS ARE SUCH FOOLS...👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎🤮👎🤮🤮🤮🤮
If they are thar stupid then they deserve to be scammed, lied and their taxes stolen by their RF while ordinary people wonder how to pay their own taxes, electricity bills in the winter and to put something on the table. But if they don't mind it then they and their RF are perfect gor each other.
Yeah my contribution of £ 1.59 is really huge... won't even buy a 200grm bar of Chocolate.
I totally agree. Misleading is what charles and his sidekicks do best. Thanx fir shinning spotlight on this.
Which rock did she crawl out from under? Also: I smell a rat. The Venn diagram of M&H supporters and Democrats is pretty nearly a circle.
Thank you. I sensed Trump would win again when every station lead with a story about him every day. It’s like they can’t quit him. I can and have also sworn off cable news.
Can I ask for or can you recommend some videos on language and framing? I find the bias I notice once I have been educated on this really helps me to sift reliable news sources. I still watch the news but when I hear certain words/phrases, it alerts me to pay closer attention and recognise more is going on, check other sources I trust as well.
Good for you, Meredith. I’m with you. Goodbye MSM.
I agree Meredith. I need that understanding. I will not be herded like sheep. I need to know what is at the bottom of it all.
All I have to say is that fact based journalism is dead, and Walter Cronkite is somewhere rolling over in his grave.
State news is coming .
I agree with you. I am getting rid of most of the news channels. These companies forget how they were treated by the Trump people fake news so why are they covering Trump and his people.
I totally agree.
Companies in general don't give a rats patootie about their viewers or customers. They care about investors and sponsors and lobbies.
Lead the way, Meredith. Couldn't agree more. Thank you for all you do! 🎯💯👏🔥☮️🌸🌈✨
I am with you, Meredith, I am also not watching it. I am done with mainstream tv, as well as cable tv. All they care is about rating. Little do they know that the reason for their low ratings is attributed to people being tired of trump’s antics. I know lots of people who change the channel or turn TV off when they see nonsense about trump. There are ways, I believe, of telling the news without all of trump’s shenanigans. I don’t know why they feel the need to show clips of him over and over and over again.
I stopped watching cable news just prior to the orange menace’s inauguration & never returned. I got all of my latest election updates from alternative online sources. Never turned on the TV or clicked on their online articles. Meredith- Besides not tuning in what can we do to clean up our media before we turn into the UK or worse? I’m furious and want to do my part.
There are options. Watched a very good and smart researcher friend go down a conspiracy rabbit hole and became addicted to rage after 9-11. At retirement I cut the cable cord and now only stream, look for balance in terms of time and sources. No more than 1 hour daily. Take care everybody 🖤
*I guess Chuck Todd has decided not to hide the truth anymore! This is a prime example of why corporate owned media channels like CNN are failing…people are disgusted by the 24/7 Trump coverage!*
I quit watching cnn 4 years ago. Let cable news or cable anything to just slowly melt away.
Agree with everything you’ve said here, Meredith. I feel like cable news is mocking us, not serving us. (That goes for print journalism too) I hope what I’m seeing is a backlash from the public, unsubscribing from newspapers, turning off cable news, exodus from X. We feel used and abused. There were never this many media personalities when I was younger, but it felt like the ones we had were at least serious about delivering knowledge or insight to viewers/ readers.
I was very concerned several months ago when I saw on UA-cam raw footage of Trump at this rallies acting incoherently and then looking on the websites for CBS, NBC, ABS, and even CNN and saw that they weren't mentioning his bizarre behavior. CNN stepped up when it was too late.
Thank you, Merideth!
Who listens to Chuck Todd?
For poltical news on UA-cam I turn to, the GrayZone, Sabby Sabs, Bad Faith, and Tim Black TV.
Meidas Touch is really good.
@@Himmiefan yes!
I think the MSM are happy that Trump win the Presidency because of how much money they’re going to make. He’s going suck up all oxygen every day 24/7/365. People didn’t choose on Policies. He didn’t discuss policies. All people heard was the MSM repeating and discussing the sound bites, the sensationalism, the propaganda, the misinformation. He’s basically being in our consciousness for over 9 years.
When you analyze the last round, the 🥭, kept the press us all anxious and angry. Click bait hate is a money maker. Don't fall it. Words, digital & analog literacy, people matter! 🧶
3:11 ah the answer
So true we need to be more selective about our sources of information.
1:35 I fully agree. But what media sources do you trust? Like i was a NYT the daily podcast listener but how they covered the election makes me uncomfortable. So who fo o trust
Well said Meredith. I totally agree.
Me either 😊
I gave up all corporate media years ago. All they care about is ratings. Hope they fail. They are elitist and only care about their million dollar contracts.
I totally agree Meredith, I no longer go to Cable news for news, and its such a disappointment because the news is no longer about reporting the facts but on sensationalism and misinformation. This is the business model cable news has chosen.
Exactly.
Cable TV is a SHIT SHOW. A MATTER OF FACT, I'LL B DISCONNECTING MY CABLE TV
I am so with you, Meredith. We ‘stepped back’ from a lot of news sources several months ago, because it just became ridiculous and overwhelming. That doesn’t mean we don’t read news or keep up with important stories, we just don’t allow ourselves to be forced fed anymore. In the name of transparency, I tell you I worked in the media for most of my career, and I’ve seen it from outside in and inside out. I live in Canada, and worked here too. There is so much to be appalled by these days, but you can curate your own news sources! What a world. It’s up to us to take on the responsibility for our own consumption. Should have to be like that? I don’t think so, but it is what it is. Thank you for always giving us such incisive insights and information. You are an oasis in the desert of modern media!!
