On Monday, in a rather surreal moment a town crier annouced the birth of Prince William and Kate’s baby boy outside St Mary’s Hospital, in London.
The British and world press had been waiting nearly nine months for the news. Here is how papers from all over the world covered the royal event. The British tabloid The Sun even changed its name for a day to The Son.
Note: young people may find this old way of spreading news as quaint as a town crier…?
