Prince Harry Death-Marked Update: Embargos Make New Idea Cry
Posted by Clem Bastow at 11:32 AM on February 29, 2008
We told you this morning that Prince Harry's deployment was now in question thanks to loose-lipped media outlets breaking the embargo the British Army had requested.
Well, it looks like the British Army, Lleyton Hewitt and Terri Irwin are not the only "fans" of New Idea out there - we wonder what point the News.com.au team are trying to convey here:
New Idea's response to their part in the fiasco essentially entails, "Enburgo, wat's dat? We dun no bout dis fings!"
They've said they were not advised of the embargo; however something tells us had the clowns at New Idea, you know, contacted the Palace press department, or perhaps the Army's PR team, they may have wised up. Heaven forbid they actually research a story before running with it!
Rumours Queen Elizabeth was planning to have the entire staff of New Idea kicked out of the Commonwealth could not be confirmed at time of press.

I know it was for all the right reasons, keeping Harry out of the news may have saved the lives of him and the people he's serving with, but still, we've not been told about our royalty being at war, but we were kept up to day about Britney's drinking.
That's the way it goes these days.
