What is so bad about the Daily Mail newspaper?

Question

ok it is right of centre but does have some good debate and political reporting.......it also allows readers comments on most stories it runs unlike some papers .........when u look at papers like

The Sun
Daily Mirror
The Star
and that totally left wing biased Guardian

why do people slag it off so much?

Answer 1

There is a little bit of decent political reporting, but the Mail's opinion columnists are mostly absolutely dreadful, self indulgent right wing Home Counties b*tchy divas who constantly harp on about "the middle classes" i.e. people earning over £100,000 a year like themselves.



Just look at Amanda Platell, Liz Jones, Petronella Wyatt, Allison Pearson, etc. They even recycle the same jokes among themselves.



Once a year the Mail will send one of these people to a shop that normal people go to (e.g. Poundland or Aldi) so that they can write a "humorous" article about it. Also not to be missed is the annual Glastonbury article where either Liz or Petronella recoils in horror at a tiny bit of mud.



It's car crash stuff really to be honest - quite horrific but you have to look.



And I haven't even mentioned Richard Littlejohn, who moans on about "Broken Britain" from the comfort of his Florida mansion, and shows how in tune he is with modern British culture by constantly making references to (and quoting lines from) such recently made TV programmes as Dixon of Dock Green, The Sweeney, Dads Army and On The Buses.



The Mail's writers pretend to be "the voice of the people" but they clearly live in a completely different Britain from the one I've lived in for the last 30 odd years.



Oh, I forgot to mention, every so often they will commission an article about ghosts, UFOs, Raelians or Scientologists from someone like Colin Wilson (who writes the "Britain's Scariest Ghosts", "Britain's Greatest UFO Mysteries", "Britain's Most Evil Serial Killers" and similar books you often see in pound shops). They were running so many articles about Raelians at one point that Private Eye nicknamed them the "Daily Rael".



And one final thing. Pick up a copy of the Daily Mail from 30 years ago (your local city library should have them). Some of the writers are different and it's in black and white not colour, but other than that it's EXACTLY the same as it is now. They go on about New Labour causing "Broken Britain" now, but they were banging on about exactly the same sort of stuff when Maggie T was in Number 10.

Answer 2

Financial pages are reasonable to good, cannot talk about the sports pages as I am not interested.



News however is another matter. Try reading the last 2 paragraphs of each story before you read the headline and first paragraph. More often than not the more factual information at the end of the story will contradict the alarmist headline and initial paragraph.



The 'badscience' book and website regard the Mail as very poor on science reporting, however so are most of the tabloids.



I have known the Mail to get stories back to front, even reporting a parliamentary debate as saying the exact opposite of what was said, however this is common as surveys show that most if not all newspapers copy 80% of their content from magazines, news agencies and each other. This introduces and compounds factual errors. The Mail has a reputation of being very reluctant to correct such errors (more than other papers).

Answer 4

Truly, there is absolutely no evaluation absolutely....simply because viewing television relies on the gunky creativeness of a Television set entertainer who's main concerns are budget, ratings and popularity and Hell with theme integrity, or, for that matter, anything truly creative.

Answer 5

You could use the method of allowing yourself to near the point of now return and slow down and then go back to that level over and over. It will help you to learn to control your orgasms. Go here http://EndPrematureEjaculation.enle.info/?7PQ1



Controlling levels of arousal is what it comes down to. If you ejaculate once even twice before actual intercourse that might help you out.



What I always tell guys to do is to lay on their partner, penetrate but do not thrust. Just remain in this position and take time to cuddle, kiss, talk dirty whatever else. Then slowly work your way towards thrusting and if you feel yourself start to want to blow stop. Even pull out if you have to. Then take time to go down on her, more foreplay and such the resume sex stopping before you get to that point of no return. In time, practicing this method, you should be able to recognize your levels of arousal and control your orgasms and teach yourself to last as long as you want.



The issue is purely a mental one, in most cases. And it is all about self control and being able to recognize your physical responses to sex and cognitively be able to control them.



Chances are if you are turned on enough as long as you can last a few minutes that should be long enough. If you orgasm once, in many men, they may need to cool down for a minute but they can still get an erection and have sex a second third or even more times after that.



If the problem is severe enough my advice is that you see an actual sex therapist and maybe try taking SSRI antidepressants. If you do get on pills like that don't use that as a cure all. And it might work too well and prevent you from orgasm altogether. If you do go that route use them as part of therapy and still consult an expert. You can over come PE and learn to last as long as you want though.

Answer 6

I have learnt about a lot of things in history thanks to articles in The Mail. It's financial and health pages are informative. It also prints articles that upset the liberal left wing bleeding heart brigade but the public have a right to know what is going on in this country.

Answer 9

The crosswords too difficult compared to the Express!

Answer 10

I read the Daily Mail, and I suspect there's a large

amount jealously involved. Even my Dad, who

is a Guardian reader, picks on my newspaper.

Answer 11

like not joining stuff tend not to pay for stuff as well if i can help it, but do read the online Daily Mail it's okay, nationalist bias but what the hell is wrong with that. Great Britain isn't a swear word to me..

Answer 12

Lefties just don't like to be disagreed with. They don't want anyone right wing to exist, therefore they don't want right wing newspapers to exist either. These liberal, peace loving people can't see themselves as they really are.

Answer 13

I used to read it but I now fear for my life when The Daily Mail imploded in my face. Really! It simply self destructed! My Dr takes up the story:



"You see, the Mail hates foreigners, immigrants, homosexuals, single mothers, atheists, liberals, pacifists, and so on. What seems to have happened is that all this hatred accrued in a cumulative manner until it simply overloaded, and that caused the implosion."



I chose to pick up the pices, wrote to the Mail and they said:



"Gay AIDS-infected anti-war Asian caused our implosion"

Answer 14
