Tunku Varadarajan writes the rant about the media frenzy over Diana and her death that’s been needed ever since. “Yesterday was the third anniversary of the death, in a motor accident in Paris, of Princess Diana of

Wales. I am flooded with gloom.

The darkness of my mood, lest you misunderstand, comes not from a rekindled sense of loss. Instead, it

flows from my recollection of the vulgarity and gaudy grief that swept through our lives after the death of

that meretricious, banal and empty-headed woman.” WSJ
