O.k, I'm not saying I dont care about the whole Madaline McCann going missing thing, but they're STILL writing stories about it in the papers.
Loads of girls go missing every day, but the papers only publish stories about Madeline. If it was an extraordinary story, I would except it being in the papers, but its not, it's the same story as every other missing girl. Nobody cares as much about the other girls, and i think this is unfair on them.
What are your views on the subject? Not just on what I've said, but other reasons the papers are being unfair/wrong.

Thousands of kids go missing in other countries.
Theres ridiculous focus on this particlar causcasian british girl, mostly because of that.
Any case where they ignore her blood in a car they rented afterwards is...well...biased.

Like it wasn't already biased? The only newspapers that care basically say the same thing every day and that's "Don't go outside! It's full of Queers, Blacks and Crime! If only Diana were here! She'd find Maddie!".

What made people care about Maddie? She's a stereotypically cute little blonde girl with blue eyes. Thousands of ugly or normal kids go missing and nobody gives a crap.

Insert Maddie Joke here.

It's ridiculous, focusing on one person. I don't think people should address one aspect of the issue, address the whole issue.

And the mass news media is stupid.

Who is Madeline McCann?
Little blonde haired, blue eyed British girl goes missing while on holiday in Portugal about 4 years ago or something. We all (well, almost) cared for a bit until it became obvious her parents killed her or something. Some people still care apparently though.

The newspaper quote made me laugh, it's so true.

Nearly took advantage of your Maddie Joke offer, but I'd quite like to keep this account XD

If her parents hadn't been doctors and surgeons, and instead, been poor people from some council estate in Liverpool (just an example), they'd have been prosecuted for neglect.

I'm at the point where I really hope that, at the very least, she's with people that are looking after her. If it's 'the other' then I hope she's dead......anything'd be better than being trapped with some kidnapping paedophile pervert.

I saw Kate and Gerry McCann on TV the other week And I, being a hard-hearted bastard at times, actually felt sorry for them for the first time. Although they have no-one to blame but themselves.

The papers only keep publishing stories about her because her parents are rich. If she was just a little chav child no-one would care. It makes me sick how status affects everyday things.

I agree, it is their fault, my parents would never of left me on my own when i was a kid. Now i can defend myself with karate though. :p

Her parents are attention whores, simple as. It's a tragedy that their little girl is in all likelihood dead, but they aren't half milking it for all it's worth. They'll get a nice fat cheque from each newspaper, magazine and news station they sell developments on the story to, and get money through donations too, which they claim goes to help finding her, but I would put money on them also taking a cut. They even got to meet the pope for crying out loud! They should just let it drop, if for nothing else, just so I don't have to keep reading crap about it on the news.
