To wonder why Kate's delivery arrangements are headline news?

[Pennyacrossthehall]

No-one else's are. And I don't care in the slightest about hers.

Have... Yes, but it's annoying to those of us who really a) don't see it as news and b) have it pop up all the time so that you're forced to glance at it. Not the royal birth as such, but 'entertainment' stuff generally. It isn't news.

If a friend tells you how they give birth is it political?

If a high profile celebrity tells you, is it political?

Why DID Kate Winslet feel the need to lie about her birth experience?

The ONLY thing that is important is that it is the right thing for the person concerned, however this is NEVER the case in the media. Whatever a celebrity does they are either demonised or hailed as a saint. And thats no good for women who don't end up matching that experience.

Its beyond unfair as it sets up this success/failure judgement of birth.

Birth should be without judgement of any kind whatsoever.

Of course people don't 'need' to know anything about the royals but bare in mind the news is objective and it tends to go with what the population is interested in. So if 65% of people want to know about Will and Kate's baby, then it'll be printed/repeated. It might be annoying but that's how the press works.

I don't want to hear about Katie Price all the time either but what can I do apart from ignore every source of news/entertainment there is and that's pretty limiting.
