What Is The Point Of "Royal Correspondents"?
they don't know anything and can't say anything if they do...
watching the news feels like a competition to say as little as possible with the maximum words...
nice work if you can get it!

"and now we return to buckingham palace. Lots of tourists here today, we've already spoken to a few who have expressed not just their concern for the queen and her family but of course also their deep respect for her long years of service... as all of you at home will know the queen is, er, not here but so many messages of support are pouring out here that really do show how much support her majesty has not just in britain but also throughout the world"
easy peasy

They can (hopefully) identify every member of the extended royal family and understand how they are all related including the foreign branches; they know not to refer to the queen as 'her royal highness'; the press officers for the royal family communicate directly with the 'favoured' ones.
Some royal correspondents have been excellent.

taboo speech - - but taboo words (poo) abound
also - she's gonna DDDIIIIIEEE !
also has other connotations - think of Tony SOprano holding a knife to.... someone's neck
also the way of saying, as tho you WANT it
so I can see why - - anyway no one knows until she does

like any other specialist reporters, they're expected to have wide and deep knowledge of their subject, not all of which will be relevant to any given story; by and large they need to be able to vamp till ready while they await official announcements. If any of them were foolish enough to announce a royal death before it happened, or before it was officially notified, they probably wouldn't be royal correspondents for long.
crowds gathering outside Buckingham Palace....
1901
prio to THAT william IV 20th June ( 1837, that is!)
and I dont think crowds gathered
Also, the casualty lists 1914 were published outside the Palace and the War Office, ( and Times front page) until the names covered the whole of the front page when it was all stopped
and War Office only
( so you had to take the train, down to London to find out if your son was dead)

( go up to London) and THAT was from down your area Paignton. - But if you were there and can say - "no it wasnt like that" - then I defer to greater experience
and they stopped when the whole of the front page of the London Times was covered -
which I though must have been first day of the Somme ( 50 000 casualties)
