Why?

The Official Find Madeleine Campaign team maintains and monitors the Official Find Madeleine Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/Official.Find.Madeleine.Campaign…) and Twitter (https://twitter.com/findmadeleine) pages for Kate and Gerry McCann.
Kate and Gerry do not use social media in a personal capacity. All communication coming from them, is either on our Website at findmadeleine.com or our Official Facebook and Twitter pages.
We will continue maintaining and monitoring the official pages until Madeleine is home--no matter how long that takes. Thank you for your continued support and for following our official pages.

One of the sites says: 'Imagine the joy of Madeleine reunited with her family.'
Whose joy, I wonder? Madeleine as a nearly 12 year old would hardly remember them. Worse of all, if her other life had been unhappy, I can't imagine K & G feeling joyful about being asked why they were negligent enough to leave her and put her through hell for 8 years.

Right. So they may not use social media in a "personal" capacity but may use it in other capacities e.g. under pseudonyms or just nosing about.

Thanks for clearing that up. It's taken nearly 8 years but you got there in the end.

Have we ever had any idea who the Campaign Team actually consists of? By now I would have thought it was the McCanns themselves and close family. Typical non-specific info from them.

I was just thinking that.
They certainly knew all about internet trolls and haters.

Also they mustn't be that desperate to find her or you'd think they will use social media to leave no stone unturned.

At one time they urged young people/travellers (through their OFMW) to look out for Madeleine on their travels, yet they never think of using social media in personal capacity to connect/appeal to people. Social media is FOC vs the high cost of running a website.

I suspect the know they'll be bombarded with criticisms and wont last 5 minutes on social media. Summers & Swan didnt last long with their 'definitive' book promotion.

Makes bad financial sense to pay third party to monitor website when Kate has no job and is working from home running the search campaign. She could well be the webmaster.

Is it still Infohost? They have a link to the Find Madeleine site on their website
http://infohost.co.uk/contact/

It was set up by Colin McCrae at Philomena Mccann's request four days after Madeleine's disappearance apparently.

Gerry McCann has a Facebook account and he uses Friends reunited. Yet another contradiction

by ChippyM 13.01.15 21:42

was Gerry's blog social media?

I don't suppose he has it anymore. Stating they don't use social media may be an attempt to distance themselves from anyone who may have compiled that dossier or attacked 'anti McCann' people online.

Just imagine this pair on Twitter big grin

They'd fit right in. Gerry talking about food - everything they ever ate in PDL (sea bass included) - and Kate wittering on about the weather (rain on the beach and leaping into freezing cold pools)....

They don't do anything without reason (and it's always in defence), I suspect you've hit the nail on the head there chippy.

It's too late.
The coroner would have been told by Police who the compiler was, and that the McCanns (family) handed in the dossier. BHH said that, so it must be true.

We know that but this has been posted on OFM page. They don't possess brains there, they believe in their idols and whatever shit they're fed. lalala

Hi Sharon, is it this one you mean? https://www.facebook.com/gerry.mccann.731?fref=ts I doubt he set that one up himself. If he did, he chose a right smug pic of himself :)

i think they are more likely to use and exploit fervent supporters when it suits them whilst they remain at a distance at least legally. BHH implied it was the family but that doesn't mean it was actually Mr or Mrs, they are too cunning I think. they used the stories of trolls when it suited and then drop all association when it went pear shaped.

Even if it was their family member who handed in it, it won't look good on the McCanns.
The family member would have had their tacit approval.

Who would believe the McCanns were kept in the dark by family member on something as serious as internet trolls dossier?
