How do Americans feel about news of the royal baby?

A few days ago, the renowned Washington Post sent me a text alert stating that the royal baby had arrived. Staring at my phone I thought "Well cool, but who cares?" . So I went to twitter asking the question; what do you think of the royal baby? A few people didn't take the question all that serious responding with "I was offended that they weren't talking about Blue Ivy (child of world famous Jay Z and Beyonce )" and a simple "Seems chill." One twitter user however, responded with a more conscious tone; Elizabeth Washington said, "he's nothing really special, he farts and burps like all other babies. He's just born into the "right" family." I couldn't agree more. I'm still trying to figure out why I got a text alert. It may be that the many people with functioning television sets and computers get so wrapped up in celebrities lives, that they feel the need to be a part of them in any way possible. I guess the appropriate thing to say is "Congrats Prince William and Kate." But they won't see this.
