And who is arguing with them. One of my points is that we are all saying the same thing! Repeatedly.I also stand by:-

Yes and I was one who gave you a rep, but do you want each and everyone of us to acknowledge your point each time you repeat it.:D

my views could stop it happening again white washing it will acheive nothing. If my views are wrong please tell me anyone admin mods anyone tell me im wrong go on

Fact Maddie could be dead could be sold could be in the hands of paedophiles and the opportunity arouse for this purely because she was left unattended with two 2 year old while the parents went and had dinner fact fact fact

The media and Madeleine: a national disgrace

You have to wonder how much longer this can go on. Not the search for the missing toddler Madeleine McCann; rather the media's hysterical coverage of the case, the like of which has plumbed new depths in the name of scurrilous rumour-mongering, gratuitous prejudice and sensationalist overkill.

What I've seen and read these past two weeks has profoundly shaken my faith in the standards of British journalism. Hearsay reported as news, gossip reported as news, nothing reported as news...anything, in fact, except facts and substance.

The McCann family has spoken repeatedly of wanting to keep their story "at the top of the news agenda" (and that's a phrase you wouldn't have found ordinary members of the public freely using even five years ago). But this bedlam of bombast and witch-hunting is having little or no positive effect whatsoever. Sure, it makes sense to keep the case in the public eye, but on whose terms - your own, or the media's? Because so far it's clearly been the latter.

The identification of a "suspect" earlier this week - a word that has completely different connotations in Portuguese law compared to here - was the moment that tipped things over the edge.

Anyone ever care about the mass child abductions which take place regularly in parts of Africa.

What if Madeleine had been the daughter of a "working class" single parent, rather than a well-off "middle class" couple of Doctors.


It's an awful crime, & I feel for Madeleine & her family, but the British media's OTT response to this has been ridiculous. And it isn't just the tabloids.

When my siser had her baby in Jan 2001 I had won a free holiday in May 01, it was a 6 berth caravan so we took them with us, one night we wanted to go for a meal. but with there daughter being so young they didn't want to take her to a noisy / smoke filed resturant. So my mum said hat she would baby sit. But I decided to stay and the my Mum, Dad, Sister & brother In-law go to the meal whilst I stayed behind. It was a scarifce I was prepared to make.

We have done this several times since even on holiday, and we would NEVER leave them in an accomadation while we had a meal, even if we could se the front door.

I do not think it is rubbish so on that point we have to disagree.Please inform me how if you lose sight of a child for second is the same as making the desision not to leave the child in creche instead leave them unattended alone in a building. Tell me which one of us is talking the dung here

Now if they had actually left the children and disappeared to a nightclub and rolled in at 5 in the morning I would be as judgemental..however in the circumstances of this case I think they were far more responsible than they are being given credit for.

The facts are the apartment was locked,the windows were shut and the flat was in sight of the parents at all times.Someone jimmied the window open and then left the door wide open.Someone went to a deal of trouble just to get that one particular child.That's the real sh*t in this case not the parents.

whole heartedly agree with you,no child should be left on their own i cant come to terms with the parents leaving 3 kids on their own what chance would they have had if a fire had broken out ? i find this a totally irresponsible action and i earnestly pray madeline will be found safe and totally unharmed.

mick its a sad fact but the b******s who snatched this child know excatly what they are doing,in 18 months time this wee girl will have forgot an awful lot of things including mammy and daddy.

zing mark is full of bulls**t,any parent knows the trust their kids have in them as parents and this should not be betrayed,there is an old saying you will have your dog as you rear your pup, and hopefully the love and care you show them will be carried through when they have kids of their own.
