Having seen it discussed on here but having little experience of the publication I decided to research it to see if in fact I would enjoy the read. I found this useful website which provides some interesting arguments on the merits of the paper. I hope you find it useful.

Saw this kid at a rave in a field who had a t-shirt with the motto 'Hated by the Daily Mail' - best tee I've seen in ages...

Cheers

Of course yes ... because you need a balanced view.

All news are bias anyway and if you trust any of them then you might as well impale yourself on spike fence ... 🙄

Of course all news is bias, but there is bias depending on the writer / papers underlying philosophy; then there is cloud cuckoo land with tenuous links to facts at best.

Go to the on line version and play mail baiting. The aim is to write a comment that gets published and the one with the most red arrows wins

Love the Daily Mail app, and I am as left wing as they come.

How exactly does one "read" a publication that largely seems designed for a cabin crew readership and thus mostly consists of endless pictures of fat celebrities / celebrities looking hungover / celebrities out with their kids / celebrities that have had gastric bands fitted / celebrities with new fake knockers?

Is the Mail or any other paper actually there to provide accurate news or to make a profit? They profit from people going to the website to view outrageous stories. People write controversial articles to get people to read and discuss them.

[b]chewkh[/b] you might get balance from the Telegraph. You don't even get accurate news reporting let alone a coherent interpretation of facts from the mail...

The DM is obsessed with Kim Kardashian. Why?

Also, "sideboob." and "post-birth body."

I do have the website in my favourites bar though 😳

I like the juxtaposition of it's hysterical pedo coverage and it's obsession with teenage girls 'blossoming'.

It's not the paper, it's the website. The website is a mostly separate operation and it's one of the most popular websites on the whole Internet. There is a good article somewhere on the New Yorker website.
