To be more specific why I'm not inetersted in Britain's Royal Family, one of the reasons is that I love 1776 and how we "elect" our government officials - Furthermore our ruling class status can be achieved by hard work & luck (like in a Horatio Alger story).
 
I like how in this country a self educated man full of integrity, morals and discipline can be president, such as, Abraham Lincoln.
 
I like how, for the most part, people can define their own fate in life (and death).
 
I like how this country of ours created masterful authors like Jack London who depicted an incredible American life like no other.
 
Sure, I appreciate other cultures and even got an A+ in Cultural Anthropology at PSU and love the poerty and artistry of Michelangelo. But Mick Jagger is more fascinating to me than Britain's Royal Family.

Typically I do not like to watch, read or listen to anything about the Britain's Royal Family.
 
I just don't care, find it uninteresting and boring. I mean, really, what's interesting about Britain's Royal Family? How is it going to make me more interesting, enlightened, knowledgeable?
 
Moreover, the only king I've ever really dug has been King Arthur.
 
However, since I like the way Lisa tells stories I tuned-in and found the coverage smart. Lisa is a very good Entertainment Correspondent that can even make the shallow obsessions of others slightly interesting to apathetic Pittsburghers like me.
 
I'd rather see her interview Ryan Adams though or like hear her take on the documentary called the Fearless Freaks on the band the Flaming Lips. And, most of all, I'd like to see her interview a nonchalant, successful, long lasting dynamic rocker who had made it and does it on his onw terms but yet is still commercially viable enough to constantly tour, engage audiences and sell nice amount of records = yeah, Mr. Michael Glabicki (of Rusted Root).
