Most of the news about Madeleine McCann disapearence, in the Portuguese Press, "are best described as 'culhoes (*)" Posted by Martin Brunt, Sky News Crime Correspondent, on his blog in Sky News Web page Source Of Sources [May 13, 2007] "[...] I'm having to rely for information on the local Portuguese Press whose accuracy is sometimes highly questionable. One paper seems to have good contacts. The rest of the stuff is best described as "culhoes". In neighbouring Spain that would be "cojones." Each morning, with the help of a translator, I have to pick my way through the minefield of flyers. [...] Written by Martin, May 13, 2007 (*) - Obscene word, in Portuguese, for "testicles". The rigth spelling is "colhões"... [...] The E-fit of a suspect that Portuguese police has showed to several potential witnesses, according to British Press Telegraph.com [May 10 - 2007] "[...] Staff at hotels, restaurants and bars in Praia da Luz where the McCanns are staying, and nearby towns, have been shown [...] a computer- generated image which looked like "an egg with hair. [...]Simon Russell, 40, a half-English, half-Portuguese video store owner said yesterday that he was visited by officers who showed him a computer-generated image which looked like "an egg with hair". [...] Daily Mail [May 11 - 2007] "This bizarre sketch captures why the police investigation into the abduction of Madeleine McCann has been so savagely condemned. Officers [...] have, apparently, shown a sketch like this to residents in Praia da Luz. One of them was Simon Russell, 40 [...] "I smiled when they showed it to me. What else could you do?" he said. He said the sketch was so simple it was easy for him to recreate, and it is Mr Russell's drawing that is used here. He described it as looking like "an egg with a side parting". [...] -------------------------------------------------------------------------- OPINION Adolf Hitler didn't managed to conquer Great Britain during the II World War, but some nazis took control over a few newspapers, until today... By Paulo Reis Like in the UK, in Portugal police officers need to be physically and mentally fit. To be a candidate to a CID officer job in Portugal, people must have a university degree [35% of new recruits are chosen among those that have a Law degree] and they go through very demanding physical and medical tests [and I know it very well, because my younger sister tried it, but she wasn't admitted]. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Martin Brunt: another howling blood-thirsty British tabloid journalist, willing to kill - or let someone be killed - to have a story (*) By Paulo Reis "Sir: Your comments are appalling, disgusting, offensive and nauseating. The only thing that I agree with you, is when you write "[...] I really don't know". That's absolutely correct and it's the first factual information I got from you! That's also the only truth in your post. When you say that most of news, published in the Portuguese Press, about Madeleine McCann abduction, are best described as "colhões" [that's the right way of spelling], the obscene translation of "testicles" and a word no educated person would ever mention in front of women or kids, is the most offensive and unfair statement I ever heard. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paulo Reis Journalist (Press Card nº 734) Yahoo Messenger: pjcv_reis Windows Live Messenger: pjcv_reis Gazeta Digital (http://www.gazetadigital.blogspot.com/) |

"andrew fox" wrote in message ... yes our media are appalling but the parents behaviour was also appalling, they should be jailed and have the other kids taken into care andrew How very well stated and absloutley correct...I am absloutley * stunned * that the material fact that this little girl's parents made a CONSCIENSIOUS desicion to go on the **** rather than look after their kids is constantly overlooked by our 'honest' media who strive so diligently for 'the truth'. They arn't fit to be parents and there has to be a degree of concern over their remaining children's long term welfare and security. It's only because they are good looking, middle class doctors that this is a media event. if Maddie was a child belonging to a single mother, or was asian/black/muslim it would, at the very best, gotten 2, maybe 3 lines of coverage in the middle of a newspaper as a one-time story, if any at all. This poor little girl has been horibly let down by her neglegant parents. -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |
