I found this great article, and thought it could open up and interesting discussion about the McCanns and how their interaction with the media has swayed, or polarised public opinion, and what effect it's had on the investigation in general .. thoughts?

The first ever debate about the media and the McCanns at Polis brought out some heated and painful issues. McCann family spokesperson Clarence Mitchell and former Sun editor Kelvin MacKenzie represented competing perspectives on a story that has gripped and disturbed the world for nine months.
