Papers are not the official positions.
They write whatever they can find. And if they cannot get any real story from the police they would make up one.
There you have a clueless jouno who doesn't know about the case even as much as we know and who is digging to find news for his new article.
Whatever he gets he writes.. because Madeleine sells papers..
Totally agree with you VIXTE. As far as I know SY or the PJ have not said anything more than they want to speak to certain people. The rest is just a mixture of rehashed old news - and the usual press speculation aided and abetted by every reporters imaginary best friend i.e. 'an unnamed source'.
Some people are speculating on press speculation and are now talking as if the information
is directly from the police imo.
As soon as I read ...'a source close to' ...or.... 'an unnamed' source'.... or..... ''It is believed....'' etc etc etc - I lose all interest as IMO it casts too much doubt on the veracity of the article.
The McCann name sells newspapers. End of.
