Professor Williams received assistance from her Journalism class who pitched in at the last minute. They provided a historical perspective on the British monarchy, its traditions and history, which she will use in her reports during live coverage of the royal wedding of Prince William and Catherine Middleton.
RNN-TV will draw some of its video feeds from the ABC network. The reporting team will also include the Wedding Channel's Kristin Koch of Knot.com.
When Prince Charles wed Princess Diana in 1981, Professor Williams also reported on that royal wedding from the New York studios of CNN.
Her students will do follow up reports of their own impressions of the events.
