@HannahHowe I think this is called "setup to fail" type of abuse. I feel contempt towards the Performingn Rights Society when I am reading this.

Today: "Re Carlo è morto": l'errore clamoroso di una radio inglese, che poi si scusa
"È morto re Carlo III". Ma no, non è affatto vero. L'annuncio è stato dato per errore da Radio Caroline, una radio locale del sud-est inglese. L'emittente poco dopo si è poi prontamente scusata "per il disagio causato". Secondo la radio inglese, a causa di un problema informatico era stata...
King Charles is dead": a glaring error by an English radio station, which then apologized.
King Charles III has died. But no, it’s absolutely not true. The announcement was made in error by Radio Caroline, a local radio station in southeast England. The broadcaster promptly apologized “for the inconvenience caused” shortly afterwards. According to the British radio, due to a computer problem it had been…

Il Tempo: Falsa morte di re Carlo, l'annuncio della radio e l'incredibile gaffe
Clamorosa gaffe in Inghilterra. Una radio locale del Sud-Est inglese ha dato per errore la notizia della morte di re Carlo III e ha attribuito l'annuncio a un malfunzionamento del computer. "La procedura 'Monarca', che tutte le emittenti radiofoniche britanniche tengono pronta nella speranza di non doverla mai utilizzare, è stata attivata per sbaglio martedì pomeriggio, annunciando erroneamente la morte di Sua Maestà il Re", ha scritto su Facebook Peter Moore, direttore di Radio Caroline. Moore ha citato "un errore del computer verificatosi nello studio principale".
Dopo essersi resa conto dell'imbarazzante disguido, la radio dell'Essex, fondata nel 1964, si è scusata in diretta e poi sui social media con il re e gli ascoltatori "per il disagio causato". Il monarca settantasettenne, che si trovava in visita in Irlanda del Nord al momento dell'erroneo annuncio, è tuttora in cura per un cancro, che aveva rivelato nel febbraio 2024.
False death of King Charles, the radio announcement and the incredible gaffe
A major gaffe in England. A local radio station in Southeast England mistakenly announced the death of King Charles III and attributed the announcement to a computer malfunction. “The ‘Monarch’ procedure, which all British radio stations have prepared in the hope of never needing to use it, was accidentally activated Tuesday afternoon, wrongly announcing the death of His Majesty the King,” Peter Moore, director of Radio Caroline, wrote on Facebook. Moore cited “a computer error that occurred in the main studio.”
After realizing the embarrassing blunder, the Essex-based radio station, founded in 1964, apologized live and then on social media to the King and listeners “for the inconvenience caused.” The seventy-seven-year-old monarch, who was visiting Northern Ireland at the time of the false announcement, is still undergoing treatment for cancer, which he revealed in February 2024.
