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.

Of all the pictures of Kate in the world - those 3 have to be the most insincere looking.

But could you just for one second consider that Gerry McCann is looking for someone or something to justify his outrageous decision. He is not thinking rationally. All he knows is that they took the decision to leave the children and it was wrong and it led to Madeleines abduction. I can’t imagine how that feels, the guilt must be unbearable.
Don - where are your facts? Please provide the facts that prove that it led to Madeleines abduction?

thankyou
I don’t have much evidence, neither do you. I am however trying to see their actions from the perspective of parents who have had their child taken. What you see as indicative of guilt I see as desparation.

Your article states that the stress of lieing has an effect on body language.
Does the stress of appearing on live TV also have an effect?
Don, these two are experts by now at appearing on television, they love it, can’t get enough!

I haven’t donated to it anyway. I prefer to donate to charities occasionally.
But the rules of the fund are quite clear. And there even seem to be people who send letters with cash to the McCanns. Should we also tell those people that they have no control over how the McCanns spend this money?
Obviously there is a demand to donate to the McCanns for part of the public, and the limited company was created to meet that demand. An example for functioning market economy.

I know you haven’t; the post where you claimed to have donated a very large number of euros was an obvious joke.
As is your claim that the Fund is an example of a functioning market economy…

When have they lied?
Their biggest lie imo is about an abduction. They are stating this as a FACT. This isn’t a FACT is it. They don’t know at all.

Should I take a shower? Would that improve my smell?
I am dissapointed that nobody wants to debate with me. I read this site the other day and you all seemed to be moaning that ‘Pros’ don’t want to debate.
But it seems that I must smell bad, or is it because I can’t do those yellow smileys?
———————————————
I am very happy to debate with anyone who turns up.
But at the moment you are not debating; you are making a series of statements without providing any evidence to support those statements.
Please, go ahead and debate…
Oh, and the smileys thing; if you put the cursor over the top of them you will see what you have to type to get them

I can’t see Mark Warner lieing. They will have that printed in their welcome leaflet somewhere.

Strange….I did ask you ealier what other nick(s) you have used before to
post here….and you ignored the query.
My sense of smell is very good…but not as good as Eddie’s and his Team-mate
of course.
Glad I hit a nerve too.

My sainsburies online shopping, peel the spuds, hoover, washing, dishwashing, listen to kerrang, do some packing, have a bacon roll, take a shower, phone a friend and be on here.
Holocaust mentioning in debates is a losing deperate defence.
Especially for a post about snarling, the only connection is that Hitler had NPD as do the Mc Canns. IMO.

Worth bearing in mind also that Mark Warner have stated categorically that the McCanns were told that children under 12 should never have been left alone.
So then it’s a question of who you believe…

I agree and I think that they will be prosecuted in time for child neglect.
What I can’t get my head around is how that makes them liars or murders.
They do lie. That is a fact. Whether or not they are murderers is yet to be seen imo.

that comment angered me too! How can you blame the holiday complex for not giving information about leaving your kids. If that was the case why on earth do they provide creches, using the theory that it would be carnage havivng loads of unsupervised kids running around the holiday resort! Again most people have common sense and a strong protective urge towards their children, not the mccs. When i moved into my house, the thoughtless previous owner didnt state whether or not it was ok to leave my daughter alone, my house feels safe, but there is no way i would go 5 yards acrossthe road without her!!! Hope this makes sense, i am in a bad mood today with pros!
