  Not exactly on topic, but I always used to throw that magazine straight in the bin. Glad to hear the loophole has been closed.

  
  Perhaps TV subscriptions should be zero rated for VAT? There's no VAT on other media like newspapers, magazines or the TVL.

  I watched the interview in question live on Sky News and, although it was insensitive, it was largely in keeping with the tone of much their coverage of this news "event" It was all too much - to close, too intrusive, too obsessive. A missing child is always an emotionally charged story but Sky News seemed determined to work itself into a frenzy over this.Hardly any other stories were being given airtime even when there was little new to say about the missing girl. Everyone in that small town will have been affected by this terrible event, maybe they needed a little more respect and restraint from the media.

  To be honest thats my problem with her and Boulton the style they present is really Dated.
  
  I remeber at the time an Australian poster wrote, out there they stopped asking for a personal reaction after someone punched the reporter in Grief.

  
  All the more reason for Kay Burley to keep asking questions.;)
