Hence why I said Australia are a bit behind the times.

I think you'll find the UK media have never reported the ins and outs of the reconstruction in quite the same detail, with reference to the facts in the files.

I think you mean "with quite the same bias" and with quotes for self-styled Criminal Profiler Pat Brown.   @)(++(*

Does your quote come from that article?  How bizarre!  Funny how the UK press is constantly being accused of re-hashing old news but when the Aussies do it, it's "news" - double standards innit.
What I have seen in the UK media seems to contain the same errors that crept in to the reporting very early on.  Gordon Rayner of the UK Telegraph is still stating, erroneously, that the first call to the police was made at 10.14pm, an error which can be dated as far back as Sep 2007.  His article then continues to the effect that this is the only concrete evidence we have, which is another glaring error.  It would appear Mr Rayner has not bothered to read the PJ Files.  Nor does he follow this forum or read my blog, because if he did, he would not be making the same errors nearly 10 years on.

Mark Saunokonoko appears to me to have read the PJ Files and Australia is getting a higher quality summary of the contents than I can find elsewhere.

If you think his articles are in error, perhaps you should consider critiquing them.  As I said, I expect more from him in the run-up to the 10th anniversary, and the simple fact that a media outlet in Australia was doing this was news to me.
What's up, old man?

Fancy that, a Telegraph reporter not subscribing to your blog, how very remiss of him.  I don't think I ever said that the article question was "in error" merely that it was not "news".  You appear to think it is "news" - and it would seem you also appear to think it is unbiased (quoting as it does the completely unbiased Pat Brown - lol).  Your prerogative I guess...  &%+((£

That roughly summarises what was wrong with your line of thought on this.

You have ignored the point that Australia running a series of articles on this constitutes news in itself.  AFAIK, Australian media is under no obligation to cover the 10th anniversary in the way that UK media will or Portuguese media will.

You may not be interested in how other countries are covering this event, but it looks like other forum members do.

The only personal assessment I have given on it is that it seems to have a basis in the PJ Files, and therefore some advantages over the UK media, where I cannot find such a source.

I will leave it to individual forum members to make up their own minds as to whether the articles are biased or not.

What's up, old man?

Some of it is news to me.  For example ... "It was a reconstruction that the McCanns appeared reluctant to participate in - despite Portugal's police pleading its importance - and it was eventually aborted." is absolute nonsense.

According to the files ...

Public Ministry of Portimao
Case Section
Case 201/07 GALGS


Dear Sir
Public prosecutor

Kate Marie Healy arguida in the case referred to above, having been notified (page 3947) expresses her availability to participate in the reconstruction of the events on the second of the dates suggested, in other words on the 15 and 16th of next May. Her husband, Gerry McCann has also already expressed his availability.

Rogerio Alves
Lawyer
http://www.mccannpjfiles.co.uk/PJ/RE_ENACTMENT.htm

Not absolute nonsense according to a 'family friend';

The friend said the McCanns, both doctors from Rothley, Leicestershire, believe it would have done 'absolutely nothing' to help find their daughter not least because police had refused requests to televise it.

I am of the opinion that "missing children" is trending in Australia right now, with the news of an arrest in the historical Cheryl Grimmer case.
http://www.9news.com.au/national/2017/03/23/00/20/man-arrested-over-1970-abduction-and-murder-of-cheryl-grimmer-on-nsw-beach

 The Mail over there also ran an irrelevant story on the parents of missing toddler William Tyrrell this week.

AND......here's tomorrow's offering .....

Fury over online petition calling for Madeleine McCann's parents to take a LIE DETECTOR test about their daughter's disappearance
Almost 27,000 people signed the crass petition on the Care2 Petitions website
A source close to the McCanns slammed the petition as 'nonsense'
The tenth anniversary of their Madeline's disappearance will be on May 3

By Hannah Al-Othman For MailOline
PUBLISHED: 22:59, 29 March 2017 | UPDATED: 23:14, 29 March 2017

Tens of thousands of people have signed a petition calling for Madeleine McCann's parents Kate and Gerry to take a lie detector test.
Almost 27,000 people have so far put their names to the crass petition, which calls on the couple to take a voluntary test.
The new campaign, on website Care2 Petitions, will no doubt bring fresh heartache for the McCanns, who will face the tenth anniversary of their daughter's disappearance on May 3.
The unnamed organisers of the petition claimed they wanted to gather 100,000 signatures so that the issue could be debated by Parliament.
However, the petition is not listed on the official Downing Street petitions website, which means it has no chance of being debated by MPs.
A source close to the McCanns slammed the petition, telling the Sun: 'Kate and Gerry will not do a lie detector test because they've got nothing to lie about.
'It's just nonsense to suggest they have.'
Three-year-old Madeleine disappeared from Portuguese resort Praia da Luz in May 2007 as her parents were dining at a nearby tapas bar.
Kate, 49, and Gerry, 48, are bracing themselves for the painful milestone 10th anniversary of their daughter's disappearance in just five weeks.
The couple, from Rothley, Leicestershire, are clinging on to a glimmer of hope that the girl, who would now be aged 13, nearly 14, could still be alive.
Madeline McCann would now be aged 13, nearly 14-years-old

Madeline McCann would now be aged 13, nearly 14-years-old
Maddie's parents were recently hit with a fresh blow of anguish after a long civil battle.
Last month, The Portuguese Supreme Court ruled they had not proved they were innocent in the disappearance.
The McCanns accused the Supreme Court judges who ruled against them in their court fight with ex-police chief Goncalo Amaral of nonsensical 'contradictions'.

Furious Gerry and Kate made it clear through lawyers that they strongly disagreed with the judges' 'erroneous' premise the lifting of their status as 'arguidos' or formal suspects did not mean they were innocent of any involvement in their daughter's May 3, 2007 disappearance.
Portugal's Supreme Court issued its devastating put-down in February when it backed Amaral over his hurtful 2008 book 'The Truth of the Lie', in which he claimed the McCanns faked Madeleine's abduction to cover up her death in their Algarve holiday apartment.
Earlier in March, Portuguese crime expert Moita Flores made the outrageous claim Madeleine died in an apartment in the resort.
The hunt to find missing Madeline, which has cost more than £12 million, could be in its last year as topped-up funds are set to run out at the end of March.

I see that Kate Mccann's friend,  Tracey Kandhola has 'written' another article in the sun about Amaral's new book.

I am sure that will help the book sales.

Will it be available in the UK, though?

As I predicted, the B.S. stories are appearing prior to May the 3 rd.

...and anyone who says the McCann aren't still being protected by some parties including the press, clearly are denying the truth.

'HE WANTS TO SQUEEZE EVERY PENNY' Cop who led initial hunt for Madeleine McCann shamelessly vows to ‘clean out’ her parents by suing them for damaging his reputation.

'The McCanns won a libel case against Goncalo Amaral in 2015 after he claimed they covered up Maddie's death, but the decision was later overturned' i

'He is also still working on his second book on the case despite claims to the contrary'

http://www.express.co.uk/showbiz/tv-radio/792440/Britain-s-Got-Talent-2017-Missing-People-Choir-Golden-Buzzer-Simon-Cowell-ITV

No mention of Kate Mccann.

It is a shame that the genuine people who made up this choir couldn't progress further.
