[0:08] Your neighborhood is our newsroom.

[0:17] On World News Tonight this Wednesday,

[0:19] the British royal family under pressure

[0:21] to honor the Princess of Wales in a very

[0:24] big way. The photographers who get

[0:27] criticized for following Diana's car.

[0:30] What about their bosses who told them
