[Mr Gray]

No but I do know Anthony Summers doesn't.

But Summmers has written several best sellers and has along history in TV and journalism..can you see the difference

But that wasn't the question.

Here's an earlier version of the page (although as I'm not sure when the page was created, I have no idea how much editing there had been before this):

Thanks for that, Carana.
So Sonia apparently has no degree in journalism.

[jassi]

Has she every claimed that she does?

[Mr Gray]

But that wasn't the question.

when has that matterred

No.

Most of our most respected journalists didn't do a journalism degree but learned their trade from the bottom up eg Paul Foot, Nick Davies and Robert Fisk.

No.

Learning your trade from the bottom up is considerably different to dabbling in advocacy journalism.

[Alfred R Jones]

No.

Do you consider Sonia Poulton to be a respected journalist in the same league as the ones you mention above?

[Carana]

Thanks for that, Carana.

No, but to be fair quite a few don't. However, in view of her interest in pursuing advocacy / controversy, a course in media law and ethics might be worthwhile...

Is what Sonia Poulton is planning any less provocative than what Brunty did to Brenda Leyland or Lisa Holland did to Brett King?

I don't know what Lisa Holland did, but I am very dubious about Sonia Poulton.  Poor old Linda got right stitched up.

In my opinion.

[Mr Gray]

So back to the question..does SP have a decent track record as a journalist...the answer has to be no.

I suspect that she might be quite good at obfuscation.

That is your opinion, more than coloured by your support of the mccanns.

Therefore of NO VALUE WHATSOEVER.

Meanwhile wait for the video.
