Heather Mills may have a less than perfect character, but that doesn't mean that everything she says is unconnected with reality. There have been anecdotal stories around for quite some time that newspapers knew of the messages Paul McCartney had left for Heather Mills.

Perhaps the reason this story is getting some real air time is that the press, the police, politicians and the public are prepared to listen at last.

Did Heather Mills approach Newsnight or did Newsnight ask for her comment, knowing the old rumours? I suppose the cyber-bullies don't really care about the answer to that.
