JOURNOS GIVE EVIDENCE ABOUT COVERAGE OF MADELEINE ABDUCTION

I think the wonderful Portuguese Fsoars or whatever it was Fernanda called herself;should be hauled over the coals also. She worked for the Baastaards and posted on open forums giving Amaral's version of things.

I see no reason why Ms Duarte can't call them, should she so wish?

Was also thinking about her, Tony.

''I would like to take an opportunity to apologise to the McCanns for adding to their distress and hurt for what I wrote.

Too little, too Fn late

Padraic Flanagan statement here:

We used a number of sources for our articles on these stories. I would normally begin
my day by reading all the British papers to make sure I was aware of any and all
developments and to see if there was anything in them which coutd be followed up, or
which could provide productive lines of inquiry: I would then consult the Portuguese
papers. To help us with this we employed a Portuguese translator/fixer who was
particularly weJI connected with the police and court service;



, Portuguese journalists, and our fixer who
had a family relationship with a detective in the PotJcia Judiciafa, helped give us some
insight into what the police were doing and the status of their investigation


Not Astro, OH of a PJ officer, perchance?

She would be as good a candidate as any.....

lily, right now, I would like to shake her, Morais and, Amaral, warmly by the throat

I know you would my friend. Who could blame you?

It would be quite a brave reporter to call the desk and say 'I'm not really sure about this, I'm not going to send anything back today'

If they had the copy they could see the strength of the material and they could take a view on it ... he story was extraordinary, this snowball going down the incline as you said. Bearing in mind every newspaper and TV and radio reporters were there

2.27pm: Flanagan is asked why Northern & Shell didn't defend the libel action by the McCanns. Was he surprised?

He replies:

No, I think at the Express they're more likely to want to avoid massive legal bills. I get the impression they're more likely to want to settle out of court rather than fight cases

Please tell me that I am not the only one that is so disgusted with this whole thing? These reporters made a conscience decision to sell their souls and destroy the McCanns and for what? Money?! I'm saddened it's taken four years for these lies to finally be exposed on a massive scale. If Amaral thinks he's going to win his libel case, he's sorely mistaken. All Isabel has to do is bring up all of the lies these reporters wrote. And they backed-up the lies from a known liar.

I also want to cry because at the crux of all of this is Madeleine. This poor child was betrayed by so many. Amaral had the responsibility to look for her and the press had the responsibility to print the truth. Instead, they sold out at the expense of a child. How they sleep at night is mind boggling.

I think I am beyond angry, Tony. The whole nasty business is now laid bare - I don't know who is worst, Gonc and co for spreading all these lies and filth, the journos for publishing it without question, or the morons who are STILL repeating it as Truth.

I saw this on another twitterfeed, I will have to check it:

JoshHalliday: Pilditch says "police source" in second par of his story, headed "Quiz on 10 fingers of suspicion", was actually Portuguese hack. #Leveson
about 2 hours, 43 minutes ago

Wonder which of the scumbags that one was?

As for the 'wonderful translators' - they are about as wonderful as the invented characters like 'Vera' who supposedly knew Secret Stuff. All inventions and sick fantasies from vile people who, for some reason - so far - unknown, were Hellbent on stitching up the McCanns.

Easy to see why they made so little effort to actually locate Madeleine, isn't it - framing innocent people is so much easier.

crazytony, lily, Zenny, bb1, your words are mine.

Bonny, I'm teetering on wanting to hit a wall and just sobbing. My heart truly breaks for the McCanns. I'm angry and sad all at once.

So much heartache and misery. The press is powerful and they knew that what they printed would be repeated. They didn't care. Now we know some people's moral compass is nil.

I so want to hurt Amaral. The man is pure evil. He manipulated the press and it wasn't the first time he did it. That's why so many in Portugal believe the lies about Joana's mother. Amaral leaked what he wanted to the press and she was tried by media.

Zenny, Amaral was the one who wrote his book around his vile theories and we know what he said. His book, as lead investigator was taken as gospel, and this stopped some people from looking for the child.

He is up the creek without a paddle in his upcoming libel trial. His defense is untenable. He will pay in money as it is the only thing he can understand and will hurt him. He never cared about the child. He sold out his soul. He will be paying for eternity for that.

If he cannot sleep at night, it is about his forthcoming loss of money.

Try not to get distraught as he will get his. He will......

Yes Pedro. Thank goodness it is all coming out though no matter how angry we get.

Of course, our real profound anger is directed at Amaral for failing Madeleine.

I pray he does. I've always had this nagging feeling that he knows who did take Madeleine and was compensated for turning a blind eye.

What I want is for it come to light in Portugal. I'm worried they will not report what's going on in the inquiry and/or glossing it over. It's important the people in Portugal know their police sold Madeleine out.

Zenny, you are not alone in thinking that he knows who took her.

Zenny, that has nagged away at a lot of people. Why the cover-up from Gonc and co, and the lies - almost from Day One?

Why were the English-language sites flooded with 'wonderful translators' and puppet characters who just happened to know Secret Stuff?

And let us not forget the GNR officer who suddenly came into money - Morais stopped discussion of that, dismissing it with an airy, Oh, he inherited it, it's not relevant.

Can you imagine what they would say if one of the UK officers who flew out suddenly found a fortune in his bank account?

I still have this hope that Portugal has finally had enough of these rotten apples, and will finally take action against them.

The way I feel right now, I would be happy to see the whole lot of them behind bars - 'senior investigators', police translators, 'fixers', the whole scummy crew.

What I want is for it come to light in Portugal. I'm worried they will not report what's going on in the inquiry and/or glossing it over. It's important the people in Portugal know their police sold Madeleine out.

I am pretty sure it will, Zenny. It is clear that the PJ are finally moving against Gonc and his clique seperately from this - news which no doubt Morais hoped wouldn't reach the ears of the sheeples.

And these statements were all given on oath, to Judge Lord Leveson.

Ms Duarte can now throw the book at Gonc in court; one way or another, the good people of Portugal will get to hear the truth about this.

And know what? I am sure they are going to be just as angry as we are; maybe even angrier, because it is their country's name that has been dragged into the dirt by Gonc and co.

What is coming out now is absolutely extraordinary. But the cynic in me says that they have little to lose, and libel actions are time limited to one year.

I cannot understand or excuse the mindset of those journalists who take the approach "make it sing, make it dance, make it up" - regardless of the consequences.

Sans it is really extraordinary. When you say one year, how are they limited please?
