Britain's Gerri Peev of The Scotsman, printed the comment anyway -- as she should have, because Peev had never agreed that any parts of the interview would be "off the record," and nobody has the right to demand unilaterally, and after the fact, that journalists keep their embarrassing remarks a secret.

I hate the American MSM, but I don't think the British journalist is in a better position to boast. The case with Prince Harry in Afghanistan is an example of how they in fact also consider the request of 'important people'.

I see your point, but yours is not a good example. There was a legitimate concern for the Prince’s safety.
