Is it only me who becomes exasperated with the media?

The present Prince Charles' memo argument.

Been listening to Sky news and their headline is "Prince Charles memo tells youth that they shouldsn't rise above their station"

Prince Charles didn't say that, niot even close, the Telegraph reported that it effectively said that, then Sky news report it as a quote.

What he actually said was:

"People think they can all be pop stars, high court judges, brilliant TV personalities or infinitely more competent heads of state without ever putting in the necessary work or having natural ability,"
