Queen Elizabeth II, the world's second longest-reigning monarch, and Canada's longest sovereign, was laid to rest today at Westminster Abbey in London in a historic funeral. Can we have a round of applause for the eight soldiers who carried that lead lined oak coffin (especially up those stairs) in front of millions today. 🙏 #queensfuneral pic.twitter.com/BS80NfkIZ9 — Claire J Cheeseman (@cjcheesecake) September 19, 2022Rest in peace Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Also no — katie spalding (@supermathskid) September 19, 2022Never have I felt the chasm with my industry more deeply than with the coverage of queen Elizabeth. The fact that all the TV news networks are running Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral, but doing little or nothing on Hurricane Fiona’s devastation of Puerto Rico shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s media.
