PRIORITIES!


From TVNEWSER:
The Royal Wedding between Prince William and Kate Middleton is expected to be a huge television draw next month, so all news organizations are spending significant resources on covering the event.

We already reported that MSNBC was sending Martin Bashir and Chris Jansing and that BBC America would be simulcasting BBC One’s coverage, but in this morning’s Wall Street Journal, some other interesting details were uncovered.

Among them: CNN will have 400 staffers covering the wedding, including cameramen, reporters and producers.

Which, of course, makes perfect sense, because there is nothing much happening in the rest of the world.

O wait!
By comparison, the Journal compares that to the number of staffers CNN has in Japan at the moment: 50.
