i think what we can see is the extraordinary good job that his father has done in raising william, a single parent a difficult position as we all know. and especially the tragedy they had to be confronted with. i think william is going to have taken a lot of that on board, and i think the very unique combination that we see with kate and william having had just as katie said, those years together before becoming a family will stand in good stead. i think we're going to see a united front, and i think kate has had some experience now with that extraordinary interest of the press. which can be so damaging for a family who are really this rust into the limelight. remember, of course, for william he was born into that position. it's a very difficult position to have been born into. >> he has learned to do it with a light touch. and he chose or was chosen by kate as somebody also who has a good idea of finesse in dealing with the public versus the private. they draw their lines. what do you think that means for what they'll want for this little boy. do you think this will be a kid who is

tina brown, we were talking about 31 years ago when william was born. so much has changed. this royal family has been through tumultuous times, three people in a marriage, on and on. the queen herself, i mean, taking a terrible fall from grace after diana's tragic death. yet today here we are 31 years later, it seems like diana's boys helped clean up the mess. >> they really have. it's an extraordinary kind of circle we've seen, as you said. it's remarkable in such a short time the whole thing has become rebranded again. there really was 15, 20 years there of marital mayhem, sleaze, listening into tapes, embarrassing revelations. all of the stuff was really, really cheesy for a long time. then as soon as william really kind of emerged into the public eye, you have this wholesome prince. his choice of kate middleton turns out to be absolutely impeccable. once again she does the perfect thing. there's a constitutional change we can now have a girl as a firstborn to be the monarch, nonetheless she does the traditional thing and gives us a prince, a king. lets face it, the quee

william has something of a smiling hatred of the media. i've been talking about that all day because he does believe the media drove diana to her death. and he is very, very protective of kate. but it's been very interesting. >> she handles it very well. >> she has. >> and since diana's death, they have done a better job of protecting kate middleton and the future of the royal family. >> thanks so much. thanks for getting up so early and coming up. your choice for video of the day is next here on hannity. peace of mind is important when you're running a successful business. so we provide it services you can rely on. with centurylink as your trusted it partner, you'll experience reliable uptime for the network and services you depend on. multi-layered security solutions keep your information safe, and secure. and responsive dedicated support meets your needs, and eases your mind. centurylink. your link to what's next. car insurance companies say they'll save you by switching, you'd have like, a ton of dollars. but how're they saving you tho

prince william's wife kate has been admitted to hospital and the early stages of labor. here's a live look at st. mary's hospital in central london were a kid arrived earlier this morning with prince william. the duchess of cambridge is expected to give birth in the private window wing of the hospital where princess diana gave birth to william and his younger brother prince harry. the child would be the first for william and kate to married in 2011 after a long courtship. here is what we will see when the baby is born. several aid will emerge from the hospital with a signed bulleting carried the buckingham palace letterhead. an official with take the bulletin to buckingham palace or it will be posted on an easel in front of the building. at the same time, there will be an official announcement on twitter and the media will be formally notified. the document will give the baby's gender wait and time of birth. it could be some time before the baby's name is made public. >>darya: new this morning. right now police are searching for two suspects and bought a home invasion ro

. -- prince william says we could not be happier. pope francis on his first international visit had to brazil, the country with the highest number of catholics in the world. the cavalcade was greeted by thousands of the faithful. clashes continued egypt between pro and anti morsi factions. the family makes a legal complaint of what they are calling an abduction. catherine, duchess of cambridge, has given birth to of baby boy. she was admitted to hospital in london in the early hours of this monday morning. we understand that prince william was there throughout and for the delivery. there is a mass media presence outside, camped out in the streets. that is the scene even now as we speak. let's get more analysis of the situation. judith joins us by skype. give us some context of what this all means. >> i think in some ways, it is almost a shame that it is a boy because it is going to be less obvious that there has been a very real change to the system of primogeniture. in some ways, while we are making something of a noise about the fa

william has something of a smiling hatred of the media. i've been talking about that all day because he does believe the media drove diana to her death. and he is very, very protective of kate. but it's been very interesting. >> she handles it very well. >> she has. >> and since diana's death, they have done a better job of protecting kate middleton and the future of the royal family. >> thanks so much. thanks for getting up so early and coming up. your choice for video of the day is next here on hannity. this day calls you. to fight chronic osteoarthritis pain. to fight chronic low back pain. to take action. to take the next step. today, y will know you did something for your pain. cymbalta can help. cymbalta is a pain reliever fda-approved to manage chronic musculoskeletal pain. one non-narcotic pill a day, every day, can helpeduce this pain. tell your doctor right away if your mood worsens, you have unusual changes in mood or behavior or thoughts of suicide. anti-depressants can increase these in children, teens, and young adults. cymba

if william has a decent innings. we've got a feature in tomorrow's "newsweek" all about what will the monarchy look like in 2070. all these fantastic people to contribute their ideas of what the monarchy will be like. >> tom, i love your math. did you do it like elizabeth ii will last to 100 and charles will come in and make it to 95 and you've done it that way? is that how you've done it. >> yeah, they're a very long lived family. the queen mother lived till like she was 102. there's no reason why the queen shouldn't go till she's 100. she's got no intention of abdicating. once in awhile i call the palace when i'm having a slow news day and say to them, do you think the queen's going to abdicate anytime soon? they always say if i refer you to the queen's speech where she said she would dedicate her entire life to the service of the british people, the key words in that phrase are "entire life." she's not going anywhere, chris. >> okay, so, tom, while you've got the hot hand here, what do you tell a kid like the now

as kate herself has said, as long as the baby is healthy both her and william will be ecstatic. bright sunshine what a fabulous way to start a monday. >> that's for sure. a strategy in place for announcing the information. it'soing to come possibly in three steps. first the announcement of whether it's a boy or a fwugirld then possibly a second announcement with that as they did with prince william indicating he has blue eyes or some other details and at some point this morning we expect, if everything goes well, to see the baby? >> that's right. now, may seem rather old-fashioned to people around the world the way they do this, the moment that the baby is born, a piece of white paper comes out and given to a waiting black cab, a black car. that is sped across town back to bucking hm palace where the queen will read the details first. the next ten minutes after that, an artist easel will be put up and that's when the rest of the public can take a read of exactly the details. as the day folds we get details of hair color, weight and that kind of thing. kind of a frenzy and fantas

william has obviously become part of that family. but for many years he's been going there to their family home. he's said to be very integrated into that family and feels completely at home there. so i think it is only natural that they will want carol and michael -- kate and william will want carol and michael to be really involved in the upbringing of that child and that's one way that this future monarch will get a great sense of normality, being in a normal family home and that kind of environment which really is something that william had very little exposure to when he was a child. he was brought up at kensington palace as well but diana was from an aristocratic background, a broken home, not much love there. i think william's keen for his child to be exposed to, let's say, a normal family, mom, dad still together, still in love. that's the grandparents, i mean, carol and michael, and for their child to experience that which is something he didn't see himself. >> you know, jonathan, i don't think most people know were you born

william has smiling hatred of the media he does slightly believe they helped contribute to diana's death. he will find it hysterically funny if she gives birth. >> could they be doing it deliberately. >> oh yes they could be doing it deliberately. quite funny. if all of us are hanging out outside of st. mary's hospital in london and born out at the bark sharier and that is how you say it properly. >> harris: you are the only one who could explain what that map said. >> it's not berkshire it's it bark sharier. >> harris: it's jonathan. >> jonathan or queen jonathan. >> harris: this just in to fox now. new upclose photographs of police captures and arresting the suspect in the boston marathon bombing. why are these pictures going public now? it has to do with that controversial "rolling stone" magazine cover. stay with us. man: the charcoal went out already? ... forget it. vo: there's more barbeque time in every bag of kingsford original charcoal. kingsford. slow down and grill. mhandle more than 165 billionl letters and packages a year. that's about 34 million pounds of mail every day. ev

daniel hoff and counterpunch as well as journalist will potter who has been on the show have come together to bring a constitutional challenge to that law they argue that it pits journalists and whistleblowers against the state and that it encroaches on the public's right to know and that it hinders independent regulation of these industries jeff her is a general counsel at peta and he's here to tell us a little bit more about this so let's start off with talking a little bit more in-depth about this lawsuit and this major collaboration of groups that have come together to get it together for you gave a great summary of the lawsuit in fact maybe we could offer you a job as a lawyer but the law is clearly overbroad it violates the first amendment by discriminating against the content and viewpoint of speech and it violates the equal protection clause of the fourteenth amendment because it's clearly designed to attack and silence animal welfare advocates consumer advocates people who seek to expose and animal abuse that happens behind closed doors on factory farms at the same time however we

kim williams is handing on the salmon culture to the next generation. she has been to london several times to lobby against the british-backed mine. >> our message is the same every year that we go back. place.he wrong it is in the wrong location. it has devastating consequences to the people of bristol bay and the fishermen. mine boss says his mind could transform local but heties or the debtor knows he is to overcome their fears. high responsibility to show people that we are not going to do with they are afraid of. it will be be able to do that? i do not know. >> thanks to the mine, uncertainty hangs over the bay. alaska has a vast natural resources. the people the politicians must decide if some are best left untapped. bbc news, bristol bay, alaska. >> i wonder who will win that one. lately, a lot of attention has been gained for the attention of stuff happening off the stage. the dance company is now in london for the start of a three- week season. can the performances put the scandals behind it? are officer will reports. legendary ballet is back.

first he has to become a man. and for that there will be help. as every generation of royal has had, a nanny, at least part-time, and of course eventually a staff at his disposal including full-time security detail. as for schooling, this royal will have access to the best of education. but he's expected to stay close to home until high school, just as william did. and then there's the bling. this young royal will one day oversee england's crown jewels collection, valued at as much as $30 billion. but that too comes later. royal watchers say don't expect kate to be making jewel-encrusted onesies. >> this baby is not just going to be dressed in bespoke designer outfits. i mean, let's face it. >> reporter: access to all this help won't mean kate and william won't be very involved parents overseeing the life of their baby boy. >> yes, you'll see william changing a diaper or two. >> he'll want to be there most evenings to bath his child and put his child sxo bed and even maybe read him a story about helicopter pilots. >> reporter: one thing we can pr

the duchess of cambridge has given birth to her first child with prince william. it's a boy. now everyone is waiting to find out what his name will be. buckingham palace released a statement saying mother and baby are in good health. he weighs 3.8 kilograms and was porn at 4:24 p.m. he's now third in line to the throne after his grandfather prince charles and his father prince william. doctors at the london hospital signed the official announcement. and it was displayed in the court of buckingham palace. prince william is on vacation from the royal air force and he'll now start a short paternity leave. prime minister david cameron spoke shortly after the news of the birth was announced. >> it's wonder news from st. mary's, and i'm sure across the country and common wealth, people will be wishing the couple well. >> william narried kate inform april 2011. well wishers packed some of the streets in london. some shared messages for the new parents. >> congratulations on the newborn son. i hope he turns out to be as much of a success as you two have been. >> i wish the baby lots

they could just stay at kensington palace or william has to be back in wales. he as search and rescue work to complete before september. they're going to take it one day at a time and figure out what's best for the family. >> we're looking at live pictures, we saw the official birth announcement signed by the medical staff travel from st. mary's hospital all the way down the road to buckingham palace, which was placed on top of this gilded easel. this was the moment where it was taken inside buckingham palace framed and then placed on this easel. it's a boy. if you're just joining us, the duchess of cambridge came birth to a baby boy just a few hours ago at 4:20 p.m. london time. he is 8 pound, 6 ounces. a lot of people were wondering who would be in the room. we have just learned that it was just the duke and duchess. back to you, victoria. you mentioned the paparazzi. it's been a tenuous relationship with the paparazzi. so many people will want to get pictures of this little baby boy. will they respect the royal family's wishes? >> they've respected the famil

william has taken the next few days off work. so that's the one bit of information we've managed to get today. but they're not going to tell us officially anything until she's inside and in labor. so i'm sure she's more focused on that rather than us. but we're very much focused on her. >> i was going to say something about this business of playing polo yesterday. shouldn't he be sitting on pins and needles, worrying, knitting, picking a name, any of those things, max? >> reporter: well, yeah. the nam issue is obviously up there. they say they don't know if it's a boy or a girl. so they've got a list of names apparently that they may go for either way. i think that's probably true because the easiest way of dealing with the question is it a boy or is it a girl is not knowing the answer, of course. so yeah, there is some debate. she actually went home to her mum's at the weekend. and from what we can tell she's either with her mum or with william at any one particular time. so depending on when she goes into labor she'll be coming

but max, in the past, there has been a deal with the paparazzi when it comes to the royals, william and harry. for this child, be it prince or princess, is there a stim lar agreement in place or is that yet to be worked out? >> and since diana died, there has been a lot of discussion, between particularly newspaper editors in the palace, and the general agreement these days, is that the palace will pro viet opportunity to members of the media that want to sort of break the rules as it were. so they are very sensitive about paparazzi pictures still. if paparazzi pictures do get shown the palace comes down pretty severely. in the uk, they are generally not seen outside the uk. pictures of the duchess out shopping for example, they get shown in the uk, so the deal is it is still pretty much in place. but there is a huge hunger on this story and what you have found is that some of the photographers have started -- if you like, the society wedding, where they expect the royals to turn up and take those pictures because there is a huge demand and the huge amount of money the photographers mak

it was 31 years ago prince william made his debut. and any day his child will be doing the same as the world watches. this cameraman has been waiting for the big moment for ten days now. >> i'm doing eight hours a day. we're 24 hours. >> reporter: the reids are visiting the u.k. from chicago anden cot resist the anticipation. >> waiting for the new baby to be born. >> reporter: kerry has been here since wednesday proudly add dorning the union jack. >> when my wife comes back. >> reporter: he has no plans of leaving until he lays eyes on the next heir to the thrown meanwhile the entire city is abuzz with excitement. in london, i'm danielle lee, nbc news. >> today is her reported due date. >> right. and camping outside for a couple days, i don't know. that's a commitment beyond what i would be willing to do, i think. >>> let's check in with rob mayeda. he's committed to the weather. >> absolutely, at least it's not raining outside. as is typical this time of year, they can see that, by the way, the fog is already spilling across those c
