The last video taken of Madeleine McCann.

[faithlilly]

I really do not understand your reasoning here.

Please explain in which way the source of the video is Reuters?

Look at the first video in post 594.

But what is your reasoning?

[jassi]

The fact that the video has REUTERS plastered across the first few frames is purely  incidental

Did you mean coincidental?  The word "Reuters" did not appear by accident or by a twist of fate.  I think incidental is the wrong word TBH.

"incidentally
adverb
1.
used to add a further comment or a remark unconnected to the current subject; by the way.
"incidentally, it was many months before the whole truth was discovered"
synonyms:   by the way, by the by(e), in passing, en passant, speaking of which, while on the subject; More
2.
in an incidental manner; as a chance occurrence.
"the infection was discovered only incidentally at post-mortem examination"
synonyms:   by chance, by accident, accidentally, fortuitously, by a fluke, as luck would have it, by a twist of fate;

I believe both were genuine videos altered by the media company to suit their needs. One still has the audio and the other had it removed for some reason. Reuters and Associated Press are both reputable media outlets so I believe them both to be correct and as aired by their respective companies.

Whatever.

Get it right.

Here is a link to the original Reuters article. There is no video or link to a video in this article.

Then perhaps it wasn’t part of the article ?

Why make an article about a new video that you have in your system and not share the video. If anything I would say they pulled the video for some reason.

And yes that is my opinion.

Thank you Misty.  I think that rather blows the Reuters claim right out of the water.  Interestingly enough I didn't give the comments section associated with the alleged Reuters release a look until now, and guess what ... the same old same old.
Any excuse though ... or none ... rather sad really.

The earliest non-MSM uploaded part of the video clip is here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hg9CnbMQBaI  dated 2/2/08. It is 23 secs long & excludes the trip on the plane steps & any accreditation to Reuters or AP.
I have been unable to find the clips in the Thomson Reuters archive.

Well that one has clearly been released by Reuters news.   I've seen a longer version in the past.

The AP version has definitely been edited.  I might be wrong in thinking there was a longer version but I do wonder why the clip doesn't end on looking directly at Dianne but more on the people sitting behind her.
The airport bus segment is really interesting to me for the actions of Kate.  She is showing a lot of affection toward the twins and the focus of the camera is definitely on her and her hand patting Sean on the head. 

Gerry's lips are moving but at the same time David is talking drowning out his voice.  We hear Gerry talking after the camera is panning around to Fiona.  Just moments on Fiona (compared to Kate) and then on to Dianne but not focused on her at all.

How do you know what was actually said?  How difficult is it to add a soundtrack to a video?  In my opinion easy peasy.

It is all the background noise that would be hard to replicate.  We hear the camera operator mostly and the background noises.

[G-Unit]

Those who are determined to cling to their unfounded beliefs have so far been unable to explain the article in the Yorkshire Post on 28th May 2007 which clearly demonstrates that their claim that a soundtrack was added after the video was released is false;

Today her parents have released two heart-rending video clips of Madeleine, captured on a family friend’s mobile phone.......

The film was captured after their friend tried to take a photograph, but ended up recording the group as they were driven the short distance to the terminal......

Mr McCann is looking serious, which prompts his friend to joke: “Cheer up Gerry, we are on holiday.”
