The campaign fund stands at nearly £600,000. Its purpose is to secure the safe return of Madeleine, it can also be used to support the McCann family. Originally donations were sought for sniffer dogs to be taken to Portugal, then for private investigators. Next, a legal team was flown out to advise on the setting up of the campaign fund and to 'liaise'. This team has nothing to do with the investigation in the child's disappearance.

Nothing much wrong with any of this. BUT , as far as I know, the legal team are still there, along with others including members of the McCann extended family, who are devoting themselves to this campaign full time. Legal teams don't come cheap. So my point is, is most of the money being used to protect the McCann parents rather than do anything to find their child? Is one of their jobs to comb through forums and report on adverse publicity - perhaps threatening legal action?

I read recently in a government sponsored report that the New York Times should be considered one of the most reliable sources of information and personal bloggers the least.

The personal knowledge I have had with a few recent events have revealed to me that some bloggers had much more accurate and complete information than the mainstream press and government reports. Also, looking from a hstorical perspective over the past centuries, it seems like the government and media support wealthy and powerful interests.

In recent times, much of the problem seems to fall into the category of not reporting important stories. For example, a PEAK OIL query reveals some important facts about why the cost of fuel is increasing very fast (This information has been available for at least 30 years; see E. F. Schumaker.)

What are your thoughts?
