The Spin
Narrative A
African Parks managed successful conservation efforts in Chad for 15 years, increasing the elephant population, while the Charity watchdog found no evidence of widespread bullying at Harry's Sentebale charity and cleared him of serious allegations of misconduct. Despite some challenges, African Parks continues to protect 20 million hectares of land across Africa and is seeking dialogue with Chad to maintain its conservation successes. Prince Harry has become a popular target, but that does not do justice to his achievements.
Narrative B
The Duke of Sussex's charity endeavors have become a pattern of scandals and failures, resulting from his out-of-control white savior complex. African Parks faces serious allegations of financial misconduct, illegal income and violations of offshore banking regulations, while poaching is on the rise under its supervision. This follows Harry's ominous departure from the Sentebale charity in Lesotho amid allegations of bullying and reveals a disturbing trend of organizations collapsing wherever the Prince gets involved.
