Royal Wedding

Royal Wedding - Late last month, NBC laid out their plans for England’s upcoming royal wedding, which was theirs exclusively for broadcast in the U.S. The sheer breadth of their coverage was dizzying -- the kind one typically associates more with a Summer Olympics than the legal hitching of two mortals who’ve been happily living in sin for a decade.

Over 20 hours of programming were scheduled in all, to be hosted by an army of twelve anchors and scattered across several of NBC’s properties -- we’re talking NBC News, MSNBC, Access Hollywood, Bravo, E!, iVillage, Telemundo and The Weather Channel. It was to become the escapist fantasy event for our economically downtrodden times. But there are rumors now that NBC's ambitious plans have changed.Royal Wedding
