Discuss media coverage of tour. Australian leg is 18-23 October 2024.
From this morning.
No doubt Nine and Seven will have rolling coverage of the tour, with ABC News crossing to major ceremonial aspects (major speeches, 21 gun salute, etc).
How did the media cover the 2011 Royal Tour? I know in 2014 they had rolling coverage of some parts of Wills and Kates tour, and in 2018 there was nonstop coverage of Meghan and Harry.
Not the most inspiring couple
Or the most inspiring tour either
Good to see that the only time the King comes to Australia during his reign is for 72 hours of official engagements.
That’s all the time Australia deserves from the monarch.
At least they remembered Canberra and Sydney - the rest of Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and all the other realms are still waiting.
They’re only coming here because of CHOGM in Samoa - otherwise I don’t think they’d bother coming here either.
Exactly - Canberra is just a pop-in, and Sydney is a quick holiday stop.
