🇺🇸 The Queen’s funeral timing creates scheduling frenzy as US networks dispatch star anchors to London
– reach for their baking sheets, the rest of us will be “streamlining” our ingredients in time-honoured frying pans. Either way, we’ll be tucking into the bacon and eggs just as the ceremony reaches its zenith.
The major entertainment networks – ABC, CBS and NBC – will bring their breakfast programmes on air as early as 5am on the East Coast. C-SPAN, more usually home to live coverage of every legislative move in Congress, is clearing its airtime to relay uninterrupted full funeral coverage. Behind the scenes in Washington and New York, the timing of the funeral created something of a scheduling frenzy., altering their plans to spend the weekend preparing for the President’s major annual address to the United Nations General Assembly.
His first face-to-face meeting with Prime Minister Liz Truss will now take place at the United Nations headquarters in New York, rather than in London. It’s being billed as a “full bilateral meeting”, an indication that there’s far more on the agenda to digest than would have been possible during a brief encounter in the hours leading up to Her Majesty’s funeral.Good Friday Agreement
