The BBC has confirmed it received 109,741 complaints from the public over its coverage of the Duke of Edinburgh's death. The figure makes the coverage of Prince Philip's death the most complained-about piece of programming in BBC history. I have seen the floods of headlines on the BBC front page, but I have never read a single article about the death of a prince. Nor did I bother to send a complaint.
“The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion (to which few members of other civilizations were converted) but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.” —Samuel P. Huntington, The Clash of Civilisation and the Remaking of the World Order, 1996, p. 51
