If you court and control the media in the way the way they have, they cannot turn off the tap, when it suits them.

I totally agree, and I'd be the last person calling for a news blackout. I have worked on a newsdesk, I know how it goes. However for the same reason, I think one or two news editors have taken leave of their senses lately.
I don't think the McCanns can expect to be left alone. On the other hand, I don't think the PCC Code's 'public interest' defence can be invoked to excuse some of the excessively intrusive tactics being used this week.
