The wedding was widely broadcast on television, internet, and radio. It was estimated that the

coverage would be watched by two billion people worldwide. ITV, BBC, and CNN covered the

ceremony and associated events live through the combined pool of footage from the BBC, Sky, and

ITN to help cover the overall cost.

BROADCASTING COSTS

• Reliability – broadcasting issues in remote places, spam• Privacy – the public people may not want to be shown on

television viewed by billions of people• Integrity – the information broadcasted may be tampered with

and not 100% accurate• Security – the security of the event would have been controlled

using technology such as CCTV, “The group Muslims Against Crusades announced plans for a "forceful demonstration" at

the wedding”, In February, security agencies, including MI5, identified "dissident Irish republican groups" as

possible threats.• Authenticity – the information broadcasted

• Equality of access – people with unreliable or no Internet may not be able to view it, those without cable TV

• Globalization and cultural diversity – not everyone would know what was going on
