The Spin

Narrative A

Though Prince Harry has secured a significant victory against MGN, this settlement isn't about money; it's about a young man who has been deprived of privacy for his entire life pursuing justice against an invasive press. Leading British editors, media executives, and publishers completely tossed ethics aside to obtain any bits of information. Harry's noble quest hasn't ended with this settlement, and he will continue to fight against a rogue media.

Narrative B

After four long years, Prince Harry has finally settled his case with MGN, yet he continues to attack media executives for decades-old actions. Harry may be justified in his contempt for unscrupulous journalists who hacked his phone, but he shouldn't be attacking Piers Morgan and accusing him of knowing about improprieties from more than 20 years ago. Like everything Harry is involved with, this case has become about personal drama, distracting from his broader message.
