Exactly. Harry is outright lying when he says "I was angry that the UK media ignored stories about soldiers wounded and dying in Afghanistan".
The deaths and injuries of British soldiers were covered extensively by the press.
79 British Journalists have been killed and many more wounded covering events in Afghanistan since 1992.
He also whines about the UK media leaking his tour of duty and forcing him to return home. Another lie. They religiously kept his tour secret. His cover was blown by a US website in a ‘World Exclusive’ and in an Australian magazine.
I can only surmise all this is for American audiences, to ram home the idea of how awful the British press is.
The Invictus games are the very best of Harry, why does he have to spoil it by telling such obvious untruths? Despicable.
