Do you read the daily mail online?

bluewhitehoops

I find it to be a very homophobic and Islamophobic newspaper and yet I cant stop bringing myself to read the daily mail.

I'm always finding myself clicking on that site curious what they are moaning about and the comments never fail to shock me.

Do anyone find the DM quite a addictive reading or is it just me?


Do I need help:(

Why bother read it online? All the articles end up in AH anyway.

So do I I definately need help

I can't get through a day without reading about what Kim Kardashian is up to, why my having a job means my husband won't love me anymore or why women/muslims/people on welfare are the cause of all the evils in the world

Pffft, the Daily Mail just hates minorities, After Hours hates fukking everyone.

I don't read the Daily Mail online or offline

If reading means looking at the latest pictures of Kelly Brook's cleavage, then yes.

What a coincidence my phone just notified me that it had updated my daily mail app the exact instant I looked at this thread title.


So yes, yes I do read it.I find most of the articles difficult to read though. It's like they get 5 year olds to write most of them !

cursai

You'd need to be snorting a line to be reading that pi$$

The sidebar of shame is why its the worlds most "read" newspaper site.
The Muslims, cancer, single mums, Europe and Beckham etc is merely padding.

But your post suggests you do read it, now I am intrigued.

Scruffles

theyre a disablist paper as well,they have long portrayed us as chavvy frauding benefit scroungers,some of their views as well as reader views on disability related topics are so fkin stupid that they are a laugh to read.
at the same time theyre an irritant because they push this crap out to bigots of the country who treat it like gospel,theyre easily swayed by anything which validates their biases.

HTML5!

Ah yeah. Sometimes. It's the reading equivalent to watching rubbish on TV like take me out.

What's annoying are people who get on their high horse about this kind of stuff.

Does the government produce this paper, that is all.

Never! If I see a link to its website on a thread here in AH, I don´t click it. Absolute fcuking scum of the earth.:mad:

Teyla Emmagan

I love it. As a 'middle aged' woman though I am in its target demographic. Don't know what excuse the rest of you have. I used to spend a fortune on trashy mags, now I read the Daily Mail for free!

PS: I do not read the Kim Kardashian articles, in my own defence.

Never been on there apart from a link in AH every now and again.
They're **** at trolling to be honest.

This is why society does not grow, everything has to start somewhere, (check how long it took life to grab a hold on earth) given time I do believe this guy might regret his little antidote, that is all.

What are you on about?

Cosmicfox

I don't know why I read it, it's addictive like the OP says, reading the comments especially. I don't bother with the 'sidebar of shame' though.

They must make titles for some stories to wind up the most people possible, stuff like 'WOMAN driver crashes car' or 'IMMIGRANT benefit cheat caught'.



They really, really have the the hate for Jack Whitehall insulting the 'poor queen' but even the usual outrage loving comments can't see what thier problem is.

I guess I am on about everything, (as you put it ) when there was nothing it grew to everything, it is just a case of how it got there (what was the influences to get it there),

What we (I) believe and how long it takes to allow us to take it as being true, like todays goverment, they tell us how we should live and what we should put back into society to make it work, (while they live on the nearest planet so as not to feel the fallout),

that is all.

You haven't made it till you get a top rated comment on the daily mail.

one of the best newspapers apps on android.

It's trashy, infuriating, ridiculous, provocative and poorly edited but I'm totally addicted. Can't go a day without it.
I love reading the comments from all the people who get caught up in the propaganda and celebrity "news".

In fairness, even though its mostly rubbish, there's a very high turnover of rubbish so never a dull moment.

A guilty pleasure!

It's just you and you're beyond help, unless of course you're another Daily Mail shill, in which case you're doing a great job. The other alleged shills seem to have disappeared. Did you get their jobs? In print or online the Mail (Daily. "Oirish", or Sunday versions) is a foul obscenity, which is probably why they need to keep the name "up there" on boards.ie

I read the tabloids for the laugh.
Two sheep drowned locally when a boat capsized, no one else harmed except two sheep.
tabloid reports "Flock of sheep drowns".
Its great to read them and just pay attention to how they word things, I would say the writers where stupid but they're actually genius at blowing things out of proportion and misleading people.

Its scary though when you see how many peoples opinions are influenced by whats printed in the red tops and the daily mail.
One great example, some council spends money on something. "£1,000,000 of taxpayers money spent on blah blah blah" even if its a perfectly reasonable expense they'll swing it so it sounds like everyone's getting fleeced!.

The crosswords are too challanging and the horoscopes are vague to say the least so no.

Some fun to be had with online comments, not just from the Fail though.

Much as I hate to say it, Paul Dacre is a genius at what he does.

BraziliaNZ

I like reading about the Big Freeze everytime the weather goes below 10c in this country, and the impending doom that will occur. Then I get stuck looking at the articles about girls in bikinis, read about what gives you or cures cancer, and before you know it it's time to leave work.
I can't stand their smug Jeremy Kyle attitude towards real issues though.

stop animal cruelty

l dont even read the stories, only if it was something that really interest me, l look at the pics then read the top comments for the story :L

l find it really annoying tho when people leave comments on a story like , "DM same rubbish again different day" just giving out about the paper but they still read it!! l see those comments in most articles.. really annoys me

mikemac1

Daily Mail is aimed at women so of course After Hours doesn't like it, not so many here

Strange that. The last time I read a Waily Dale I found the crosswords vague and that the horrorscapes were changelings, but then I'm old and odd. Where am I?
