It’s a common problem on the BBC website out of hours and on bank holidays. Junior reporters and disinterested second-line news editors get the crappy shifts. They’re not the best at what they do in the first place, and couple that with their understandable desire not to be in the office on the weekend and this is what you end up with.
That article is written by someone who has no specialism in royal reporting and no evidence of having been assigned to follow any of the other stories that have been referenced. In fact a good chunk of it is simply hyperlinks to other BBC news stories which the hack in question clearly hasn’t bothered to read properly. Plus there’s that ever-present ‘here’s what we want you to think’ sidebar the BBC always shoves right into the middle of the copy, here written by a member of their foreign reporting staff who thinks she’s spotted her chance to show how great she is at writing royal puff pieces (she isn’t).
