Do you reckon journalists read these forums?! My mind immediately goes back to the huge front page spread on the Bel Tel a few years back claiming flights to Qatar were imminent. We're still waiting.

The article says
increasing speculation that it is "seriously considering"
. That's about as typically vague journalistic speech as you could get.
