"Mr. Nelson" vs. "Prince"

Not about the song.

But, about the national news stories; to distinguish from the tabloid news.

On CBS News, for example, the anchor and, for example, Dr. Kornfeld's attorney, ALWAYS just refer to him as "Prince."

Never as "Mr. Nelson." It just seems out of place in some instances.

Maybe it's a sign of respect. I am happy Prince left us with Mr Nelson in HitnRun I. It's so much nicer a song than the infamous 'My name is Prince.'
