What is the meaning of "speculative" in the following context?
Similarly, no story is too speculative. �I Saw Maddy Taken Away in Taxi,� a rival tabloid, The Mirror, reported a few days ago. And no sensational leak can be reported often enough. �Maddy DNA Bombshell: New Results Put Parents Back in the Spotlight,� The Standard said, atop an article that reported renewed assertions that Madeleine�s parents, Kate and Gerry McCann, might have been involved in her disappearance.

| "Speculative" means based on a guess or based on doubtful information. |
