^ It does actually interest me, but it's almost unreadable to me. This is one sentence:
"There's also an interesting article I read somewhere from someone who was a radio DJ on the overnight show when the whole thing with Diana was going on basically about how the entire station was totally unprepared - the protocol said that they were to carry on as normal until they were told through the system that they have set up for an announcement of that nature (there is seriously an entire system for all of the radio stations to let them know that a major royal has died - they've only ever actually used it for Diana: it didn't really work when the Queen Mother died since the person in charge of pressing the two buttons that needed to be pushed to set the whole thing off only pressed one: so some stations went into the news without knowing and then had to very quickly check upcoming songs to make sure that they were... appropriate) then play 'appropriate music' (read very sad, bad ballads or classical music) until the news, then play the national anthem, and then play the tape that they had set aside just in case something like that happened."
