Madeleine McCann: Josef Fritzl, Tabloid Bingo And Watching Kate McCann
MADDIE WATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
DAILY MIRROR (front page): “We’ll find Madeleine ourselves”
It is the McCanns’ “EXTRAORDINARY VOW”.
Any news of Metodo 3, the sleuths who would find Madeleine by last Christmas?
TWINS IN VOW TO FIND SIS - MISSING MADELEINE McCANN: ONE YEAR ON
The McCanns’ three-year-old twins Sean and Amelie have promised their grieving parents they will rescue their missing big sister.
Well, why not let them have a go?
Says Gerry McCann: “Madeleine is everywhere in our lives.” All our lives.
IRISH INDEPENDENT: “’One year on, we’re no closer to finding Maddy’”
Says Kate McCann: “There has been that much speculation in a lot of the media, particularly the written press. It’s taking away people searching for Madeleine.”
Says Kate McCann, and not Clarence Mitchell, the McCanns’ media handler.
POLO SHIRTS (a company selling T-shirts): “T-Shirts can be very valuable tools in helping to find missing children. Think about how many people see you each and every day. If you are wearing a T-shirt with the picture of a missing child on it then all of those people are also seeing the child and, hopefully, watching for her everywhere that they go. In the case of Madeleine McCann, the sale of T-Shirts is also helping to raise money for Madeleine’s fund: Leaving No Stone Unturned.”
Let’s hear it for the T-shirts!
GLASGOW DAILY RECORD: “Tragedy Breeds Tourism”
It is a year since Madeleine McCann vanished.
Madeleine McCann and Josef Fritzl? We’ve already had the McCanns and Elisabeth Fritzl. There’s a link? Joan Burnie sees one..
The apartment from which the then three-year-old disappeared has now become a sick tourist attraction, where people take their own kiddies to be photographed where once Madeleine slept.
Next year, can we expect the Austrian Tourist Board to promote tours of the dungeon in which Josef Fritzl incarcerated and abused his daughter?
THE SUN: “Dungeon rescue gives me hope”
Madeleine McCann and Elisabeth Fritzl? A link?
MISSING Madeleine McCann’s mum told yesterday how the astonishing rescue of Austrian dungeon girl Elisabeth Fritzl has given her fresh hope that her daughter is still alive.
Kate, 40, said that hearing how Elisabeth was saved after 24 years imprisonment renewed her belief that little Maddie may also be held captive somewhere.
It’s Tabloid Bingo! Bingo! Bingo!
METRO: “Dungeon fear for Maddy”
THE GUARDIAN: “Fritzl case proves long-term missing can re-emerge, say McCanns”
The couple had taken hope from the case of Elisabeth Fritzl, the Austrian woman whose father locked her in a cellar beneath his house for 24 years, and fathered seven children with her, said Gerry McCann.
DAILY MAIL (front page): “Kate: one year on: A portrait of torment”
Kate McCann is a “GP”.
DAILY TELEGRAPH (front page): “MADELEINE JUST FEELS VERY CLOSE”
Kate McCann:
It’s a sense, really. Madeleine just feels very close. It’s more of a kind of sensation that she’s there. You try to be objective and think, ‘Is that just because I’m her mum and I want to believe it?’ But it hasn’t changed.

“A light went out in the lives of Kate and Gerry McCann that day.”
yeah…the least we can say,NOT very enlightened…
“…And as the nation remembers Maddie on the first anniversary of her disappearance, her heartbroken mother Kate has urged thousands worldwide to shine a light in her memory”…..
The Nation???..meanwhile, her heartbroken parents are calling to people,inciting them to committ a crime,yet an other one …
Still no news from clarrie

Mccanns blast media coverage
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/7380419.stm
Asking people to LOOK for their Madeleine while they are on THEIR holidays???
Madeleine is an ICONE of missing children
What was I saying? a shrine ,soon??
The last shot of them is rather revealing :they just had a very good time in front of the cameras
May 3rd, 2008 at 8:26 am
Jo,
course they are exhausted and fragile, counting all that money , bless.
Must go and practice facial expressions and mouth clunking before carrefour.

This is definitively the most relevant and worrying piece of news, “chef d”oeuvre”,never seen yet,I would think,in any other criminal investigation in a “kidnap”….I know,you are all aware of it but if you had any doubts,yes,G is asking the witnesses who have spoken to BOTH PJ and UK cops to tell THEM what they have said
I cant over come that one……it makes me think they are really mentally unbalanced and prooves will be brought forward
“Without having succeeded in gaining access to the file of the Judicial Police, still under secret court, the couple tries to read what the witnesses have said the Judicial Police.
“What we ask you to do is, if you have provided information to the police (UK), Crimestoppers, or the Portuguese police, we ask you to communicate well,” asked Gerry McCann. ”
According to a source of the Public Ministry in Lisbon, “the appeal by the couple McCann is the equivalent of an incitement to crime, because all the witnesses must respect the secrecy of justice and must not reveal information in the dossier, except in cases provided by law. ”
I wonder today,if the PJ is going to make an official comment and warn the public/witnesses over that last poo-poo

ah…this is interesting!
Madeleine McCann: A year of doubts, 02 May 2008,in http://www.mccannfiles.com/id79.html
“As to the hypothesis of the couple asking for compensation from the Portuguese state, if evidence that links them to the disappearance is not found, the lawyer says that that possibility is not, in theory, contemplated in the Portuguese law. Nonetheless, “Kate and Gerry may, in the limit, try to prove that there was bad intent or falsification of evidence. In a case like that the situation is different”……..
……”After a huge controversy, Maddie’s parents are willing to return to Portugal to participate in an eventual reconstruction. But according to Rogério Alves, only if this step is judicially ordered and if it is really needed”
All about cash and more cash,isnt it?
Has it ever been about Madeleine?
The arguidos putting conditions to their return.May be thont have to? May be it is all being sorted out for them….behind the screen?

” and its more significant than we felt…..” ,
Is this woman for real?
(Good morning Jo)
May 3rd, 2008 at 8:00 am
Good morning,
From todays Guardian…
tried to post it but having problems….
“”"”His wife added: “It’s funny in some ways, because you kind of think it’s just another day, really, almost like a media landmark than anything else. But I think we’ve maybe underestimated it, and it’s probably more significant than we felt. I don’t think we’ll know until the morning really what feels right.”"”" unquote.
Funny?
Media Landmark?
Feels right? - Heard that before somewhere.
K a devout Roman Catholic - service today in Church of England Church.
Unreal!

jo, you forgot about the rest of todays Portuguese press saying the case is going pear shaped, why am I not surprised.
May 3rd, 2008 at 7:49 am
Good morning,sleepy heads
“The Public Ministry (MP) and the Judicial Police will have a meeting crucial to the future of the case of the disappearance of Madeleine McCann within two weeks”
Untranslated bit from one of Vals post
And now this
http://joana-morais.blogspot.com/2008/05/police-haunted-by-madeleine-case.html
“That is likely to reinforce a widespread public perception here that police time and resources were disproportionately allocated to one high-profile case.”
yeah..enough is enough

The 12 months have gone quickly. Has Maddy been found on any sites-no. So that brings the conclusion she is either not here, or with a private person/s. Kate is getting herself done up. If she feels awful about the press intrusion, my advice to her is don’t go on TV, give interviews, talk to the press, give out photos, etc.
May 3rd, 2008 at 2:25 am
You got me mixed up with another poster - I think she is Ann…….I wish I did have psychic ability - lol

Ok, here is a question for all of you insomniacs:
What questions were not asked of the McCanns during the most recent media blitz?
