The British royal family has given broadcasters in the UK a deadline of today to pick just one hour of footage they would like to keep for future use, despite the fact that millions of people already saw it on several platforms. Since the UK doesn't have any constitutional protections for free speech like the First Amendment, broadcasters have no choice but to follow suit.
The United Kingdom observed a full ten days of official mourning after the death of Queen Elizabeth II. British broadcasters are being told to only give one hour from their coverage for future broadcasts, and submit that hour to the royal family for approval. Buckingham Palace would have to approve any use of footage beyond that one hour.
You would think that online coverage could live on the internet forever. According to the Guardian, the royal family had at least five short clips from the Queen's memorial and funeral services removed from UK media websites. There are a few weeks left for the long streams to be removed from the iPlayer.
News organizations that used the broadcast feed of the official ceremonies had to promise any social media clips would be solemn and dignified, but it is not clear what kind of written arrangements may exist with U.S. news outlets. The staff for the royal family kept in touch with executives at British media outlets, letting them know what was allowed for re-publishing during the Queen's memorial service, according to the Guardian.
The royals are hiding something. The history of people like Prince Andrew, the brother of the new king, is not as scandalous as you might think. The civil sexual assault lawsuit against Andrew was settled with the help of Queen Elizabeth II.

The royal family doesn't want you to see things like King Charles III impatiently making one of his servants take away a pen holder from his desk and proclaiming himself king. In the video, which went viral on social media, Charles looks like an entitled prick, which is exactly the kind of video the royal family doesn't want circulating after losing the queen.
The husband of the Queen's granddaughter was seen looking at his watch during a quiet period of reflection, which was considered scandalous by some in the UK.
Anyone looking at the iPlayer website in the UK can guess which video streams have been flagged. The video stream of the king in Northern Ireland will end in 11 months. The king in Wales will only be available for a short time.
King Charles III wants to keep the events in Wales out of the public eye. We don't have any idea. We didn't pay attention to the hours of footage. Charles doesn't like the idea of what is in there to be uploaded to the internet.
If you know where to look, you can archive video from the iPlayer. It is unlikely that people in the UK will see anything from official ceremonies that have not been approved by the royal family.
Many monarchists believe that the British monarchy has no real power. They didn't know what you could watch on TV or online.
The article said that Prince Andrew was the son of King Charles III. Andrew is his sibling. Gizmodo is an American website with a dislike for monarchy.
