I wonder how much of this has more to do with their failure to successfully block / sue over the book? Has the strange inclination of the tabloids to favour the McCanns (when let's face it, they are normally inclined to go with a negative slant - it sells better) has been largely down to a simple fear of being the target of legal action... but now they all feel more confident in reporting something less "Pro-McCann"?

I will find it, McCanns paid the press to keep them in the headlines

The thing is though that precedent has been set in a Portuguese court not a British one and the McCanns have already threatened to sue if any translated versions are sold in the UK so maybe they're still treading carefully as you can see from this excerpt from the link Chuff posted :

Curiously, the Daily Mail’s “Portuguese court says Madeleine McCann’s parents HAVEN’T been cleared” (with large capital letters for the word haven’t) was later changed to: “Fresh anguish for Madeleine McCann's parents as Portugal's supreme court insists they haven't been proved innocent over their daughter's death”.

The shift in language over the past week or so from our press is pretty insane.

An excellent read, long but please take 10 minutes

I totally didn't pick up on this yesterday, not sure if anyone else did... m'lovely wife pointed it out as soon as I showed her the article.




...Wups? Slip up there by mail online? Not their daughter's "disappearance" but quite explicitly states her death, as in, they are of the opinion that she is indeed definitely dead. Not usual at all for the UK press who have been pushing the "Abducted by paedophiles or maybe gypsies and possible sightings" angle for years...

I never knew they pay a PR company to keep Madeline in the press. I guess it explains why it's been in the press daily for the past 10 years.

I did notice that yesterday alright but but but I thought the fact that she'd died was the conspiracy theory

An interesting read (if a little hard to follow). I also noticed this comment at the bottom:

"Do you think that if the truth is revealed......the McCanns could escape sentence??"

This is basically what I think is likely to happen unfortunately. I don't think there will ever be enough evidence to actually secure a conviction against them even if it does go to the courts. I don't think they will ever actually confess and therefore we will never know the specifics of what happened, either. And because of that, there will always be people who will believe their version of events, no matter how much evidence there is to the contrary or what the police / media believe.

Yeah i think so too unfortunately, unless they actually find her body (unlikely at this stage) or they get a confession then I can't see how they will ever convict them if the dogs evidence wasn't sufficient

There's an outside possibility of Kate revealing something eventually in my opinion. No matter which version of events you believe (even if it is that it was a kidnapping and all of their campaigning has been about finding her) it's fairly obvious that Gerry is the driving force behind the narrative.

Yeah but Kate has revealed stuff before, as in slipped up, stories changing etc etc doesn't seem to make any difference

Sounds like the type of thing a murderer would do..

DM says they think she's dead.
LT logic dictates that DM cannot be wrong.
McCanns say they think she's alive.
LT logic dictates that Kate McCann cannot be wrong.

... If a black guy, a US state trooper and a 71 year old clock winder weigh in, I think we're going to lose him

They changed the online headline yesterday afternoon, "DEATH" wasn't in the original one
