It takes time for individuals to learn how to navigate the world of public relations, especially when it comes to presenting oneself to the media.
For Harry and Meghan, this process has been particularly challenging, as they strive to distance themselves from controversy.
Being labeled as “grifters” was undoubtedly a blow to their reputation, but fortunately, a major player like Spotify stepped in to mitigate the damage.
However, one must question the wisdom of Spotify for investing millions of pounds in them.
As we discussed previously, the CEO of Netflix also faces a difficult decision due to the ridicule they faced at the Golden Globes.
This situation may result in layoffs, as streaming services become less affordable amidst a cost-of-living crisis.
In light of these circumstances, some argue that Harry and Meghan are merely staying one step ahead of the curve.
But are they truly?
Good morning, I’m Neil Sean, reporting from the bustling streets of London.
It’s interesting how politicians nowadays are spared from being called outright liars.
Rachel Reeves, for instance, borrowed content from someone else’s book, but instead of being labeled a liar, she is referred to as misspeaking or sharing a mistruth.
However, let’s call a spade a spade – borrowing without proper attribution is dishonest.
We were taught this lesson in school, and if caught, we would face the wall at the front of the class.
I can imagine you were familiar with this experience as well.
It’s amusing how we can no longer offend anyone by speaking the truth.
The bottom line is, Rachel Reeves lifted content from a book, and it’s time to acknowledge it and move on.
Now, let’s delve into the intriguing situation surrounding Harry and Meghan and their streaming deal with Netflix.
To be fair, they haven’t delivered much.
Netflix may have achieved their goal of associating with the couple, as mentioned during the Oprah Winfrey interview regarding “The Crown.”
Additionally, Harry and Meghan fulfilled expectations with their controversial docu-series.
So, in terms of publicity, Netflix received their money’s worth, even if the production values fell short.
However, looking ahead, there are interesting developments.
In the coming days, it will become evident that I was right all along.
The media has been subtly asked, allegedly by Harry and Meghan’s team, to use a particular phrase – “winding down.”
But let’s be clear, nobody winds you down; you get fired if you fail to deliver what the company expects.
It’s as simple as that.
So, when you start seeing this phrase being used in relation to their conversations with influential figures at the recent Bob Marley event, it’s important to recognize that it’s not a request but an attempt to save face.
Let’s not forget that Meghan and Harry have been desperately trying to secure new deals ever since Spotify let them go.
Audible couldn’t meet their financial demands, and no other offers have materialized.
Perhaps it wasn’t about being grifters; maybe it was merely a case of their streaming deal winding down.
As always, I’m here to share the latest insights.
This is Neil Sean reporting from the heart of London.
