		Wark, you may recall, interviewed the latter's mainman, Pete Doherty, on Newsnight in 2004 when she seemed to sympathise with his failure to kick drugs.
		Wark cares equally strongly about Bob Dylan (whose self-titled first album was the first ever record she bought along with the Kinks' single 'Dead End Street') and, indeed, storytellers generally, from the late, sardonic Warren Zevon to Morrissey.

	Kirsty Wark and the bugged emails story you WON'T be hearing on Newsnight \| the Daily Mail

	Rottweiler Puppy » Blog Archive » Kirsty Wark: ‘We Are Not Worthy’, Say Observer
		To an English audience, Wark is a presenter on Newsnight and Newsnight Review, one of a rare breed who can interrogate a government minister then segue into an erudite analysis of a new novel, play or film.
		For the past 15 years, Wark, who is now 49, has commuted 1,000 miles a week, staying in London for two nights and often returning to Glasgow on the sleeper, emerging in the dawn looking, as she has said, like a bag lady.
		It is, after all, disturbing to think the prevailing culture at the BBC has shifted so far to the left that one of their highest profile journalists can see nothing untoward in holidaying with a minister four months before a general election.

		Wark was one of the first to learn of Madeleine’s disappearance when a neighbour in Glasgow who is a close friend of Kate McCann rang her doorbell.
		If Wark's pre-event publicity is that tame she can not be planning the Newsnight, Paxman-style, probing and cutting interview which should be done and this nightmarish story deserves.
