@ Steve Bennedik
Sky News Networked Media Editor

Adam Boulton said at the Editors conference in Manchester today that many readers comments are 'not worth the paper they aren't printed on'. Do most comments about the McCann's bear that out?

Answered by Steve Bennedik

I think Adam was saying that despite the rise of online blogging and user contributions, we still require levels of professional reporting, expertise and analysis. All opinions are important and relevant to those who give them. People hold passionate views about the McCann’s, and the story of missing Madeleine. I think they have a right to give them and a right to debate the issues.
