Plain Dealer writer Make Dawidziak said it best in a column today: "Royal wedding TV coverage was best when the anchors shut up."
I managed to wake up early to view coverage of the wedding of Britain's Prince William and Kate Middleton, and although I'm not a follower of the royals, it was a spectacularly beautiful and inspiring ceremony.
Not so inspiring was ABC, which had the venerable Barbara Walters and Diane Sawyer on the job. When Barbara wasn't yakking about Kate's Alexander McQueen dress and the fact that the designer had committed suicide, she was talking over the ceremony. Quiet please, ladies. Sometimes the news doesn't need constant commentary.
