Daily Mail Readers

I do find it interesting when discussing "Daily Mail Readers" that the assumption is the term is being used literally.

When I say "Daily Mail Readers" I fully contend some of those I am thinking of have NEVER read the mail in their life.

Also people who read the mail aren't necessarily included.

For me it is a catch all description of the elements of society that are right wing and always on the lookout for the next thing to be angry about, which will not impact their lives the slightest bit.

Why "Daily Mail Readers" because the Daily Mail specialises in farming the rage of people like this.

And most who do not fall into the category have a good idea what you mean when you say it.

Similar (but not quite the same, given the strawman aspect of it) to how the right talks about "communists/marxists" when very few of the people they are talking about are ACTUALLY communist/marxist.

Guess freedom of speech does not fit into your narrative no matter how silly it is. Lol guess you are the Marxist/ communist and want the state to control a narrative that you perceive.

That argument is so out of field and farcical on its very face.

Nothing I said touched on state controlled media or freedom of speech.

If anything it was pro freedom of speech.

But you have never let the facts stop you attacking what I say,

I am making sense you degrading people for their choices. Instead of a narrative that you do not agree with. It's the second post you made about the " Daily mail". Because you "feel" your expression is more important than others. It's like fox here is it not ?

But I thought we were free to say what we wanted?

Or is that only for things you agree with?

See the hypocrisy?

You will also notice I never said they had no right to say it. Just that I disagreed.

You were literally mad because someone chooses something that does not fall into your train of thought. Why 2 posts again? Here is a hint not everyone agrees to your political views. Personally you try and take your eloquence and try and think you superior.. you are not. People have the right to choose not you.

That isn't what I did though, I made a post about how the term Daily Mail Reader doesn't not have to be literal.

The other post was pointing out the paper is globally considered to be unfactual.

Two different things, different enough that separate topics is appropriate.

You are the one that is getting in their feelings because someone is expressing things that you don't like.

I don't claim any pomp and circumstance any perception otherside is a you problem not a me problem.

I don't have a problem with where you come from or your socio-economic background.

I have a problem with your right-wing authoritarian views and your propensity to claim things based on your feelings and not facts.

Are they not a"right" rag news outlets in your eyes yes or no ? You cry foul yet bother the daily and fox news are the biggest in both countries? How strange in your analogy of what people view is a condemnation on your part.yiu literally posted twice......

Not the most thrilling post. The ‘let’s knock people that read a newspaper that we don’t like’ gets a mention on here every other day. I guess because anonymity on a swingers site is their only outlet.

The funny thing here is you are trying lambast and shut me down because you claim I am trying to shut down right wing talk... When I have literally said they have the right to think that.

You are a hypocrite plain and simple.

I think the problem with this paper is not that it's something people disagree with. It prints blatant lies and deliberate misinformation to further the agenda of the owner, as an example, it promoted brexit with a campaign of false stories and information.

That and they publish anti Islam, anti trans, anti immigrant stories promoting hate. Which again, is not just an alternative viewpoint. It's vile.

I don't know how similar it is to fox news.

do people have the right to make a informed decision accordingly? Only way you going to control that "narrative " is how? State runned media is is not ?

Her is a thought .. the left always crying about everything hence the multiple posts over the "daily mail" do you see anything about other left wing news sources that were posted? So who is for people choices and who is not ...

I don't think anyone should control the narrative.

My own opinion is that they need to teach kids in school how to interpret information they receive in the media. At the moment far to many people believe any old horseshit without considering whose publishing it, what effect this might have, is it factual/scientific, what has this publication said about this in the past, does it stack up with statistics on the matter etc.

Without being able to do that, they're not making an informed decision. They're making a misinformed decision.

The UK only really has one left wing new outlet. It isn't well funded, doesn't have very good journalists (mostly), and doesn't have the same circulation.

"You were literally mad because someone chooses something that does not fall into your train of thought. Why 2 posts again? Here is a hint not everyone agrees to your political views. Personally you try and take your eloquence and try and think you superior.. you are not. People have the right to choose not you.

Yes I a redneck girl I don't have the pomp and circumstance you pretend. Yet the majority are us why is that?

That isn't what I did though, I made a post about how the term Daily Mail Reader doesn't not have to be literal.

The other post was pointing out the paper is globally considered to be unfactual.

Two different things, different enough that separate topics is appropriate.

You are the one that is getting in their feelings because someone is expressing things that you don't like.

I don't claim any pomp and circumstance any perception otherside is a you problem not a me problem.

I don't have a problem with where you come from or your socio-economic background.

I have a problem with your right-wing authoritarian views and your propensity to claim things based on your feelings and not facts.

Are they not a"right" rag news outlets in your eyes yes or no ? You cry foul yet bother the daily and fox news are the biggest in both countries? How strange in your analogy of what people view is a condemnation on your part.yiu literally posted twice......

I think the problem with this paper is not that it's something people disagree with. It prints blatant lies and deliberate misinformation to further the agenda of the owner, as an example, it promoted brexit with a campaign of false stories and information.

That and they publish anti Islam, anti trans, anti immigrant stories promoting hate. Which again, is not just an alternative viewpoint. It's vile.

I don't know how similar it is to fox news.

do people have the right to make a informed decision accordingly? Only way you going to control that "narrative " is how? State runned media is is not ?

I don't think anyone should control the narrative.

My own opinion is that they need to teach kids in school how to interpret information they receive in the media. At the moment far to many people believe any old horseshit without considering whose publishing it, what effect this might have, is it factual/scientific, what has this publication said about this in the past, does it stack up with statistics on the matter etc.

Without being able to do that, they're not making an informed decision. They're making a misinformed decision.

Kind of a oddity

. We have a democrat government and according to OP right wings are idiots in it's nomenclature. Yet what are the number one news as sources. People have the right to choose others to instead of 1. Entertainment and confirmed understanding. Yet you can't differentiate one from the other.

Is every one of your posts on every topic quite so incoherent as those here?

Maybe you should apply to be a columnist on the Mail? Clearly hard right, doesn't make any sense, entirely lacking facts. You'd fit in perfectly!

Right wing news is fine. Hate based misinformation isn't fine.

You did why mention right in the first place can't you just say people? not that hard.. why do people have a affinity to the daily mail ? Nope you played the left card did you not ?

You are a walking logical fallacy.

This entire thread you have been building strawman after strawman, and making false equivalencies. of course you going to strawman . Yet facts are facts are they not ? It a standard of yours. people are individuals are they not ? They have the right to make a informed decision according to their standards?"

If people have the standards of the daily mail, it's entirely appropriate to poke fun at them.

"You were literally mad because someone chooses something that does not fall into your train of thought. Why 2 posts again? Here is a hint not everyone agrees to your political views. Personally you try and take your eloquence and try and think you superior.. you are not. People have the right to choose not you.

Yes I a redneck girl I don't have the pomp and circumstance you pretend. Yet the majority are us why is that?

That isn't what I did though, I made a post about how the term Daily Mail Reader doesn't not have to be literal.

The other post was pointing out the paper is globally considered to be unfactual.

Two different things, different enough that separate topics is appropriate.

You are the one that is getting in their feelings because someone is expressing things that you don't like.

I don't claim any pomp and circumstance any perception otherside is a you problem not a me problem.

I don't have a problem with where you come from or your socio-economic background.

I have a problem with your right-wing authoritarian views and your propensity to claim things based on your feelings and not facts.

Are they not a"right" rag news outlets in your eyes yes or no ? You cry foul yet bother the daily and fox news are the biggest in both countries? How strange in your analogy of what people view is a condemnation on your part.yiu literally posted twice......

I think the problem with this paper is not that it's something people disagree with. It prints blatant lies and deliberate misinformation to further the agenda of the owner, as an example, it promoted brexit with a campaign of false stories and information.

That and they publish anti Islam, anti trans, anti immigrant stories promoting hate. Which again, is not just an alternative viewpoint. It's vile.

I don't know how similar it is to fox news.

do people have the right to make a informed decision accordingly? Only way you going to control that "narrative " is how? State runned media is is not ?

I don't think anyone should control the narrative.

My own opinion is that they need to teach kids in school how to interpret information they receive in the media. At the moment far to many people believe any old horseshit without considering whose publishing it, what effect this might have, is it factual/scientific, what has this publication said about this in the past, does it stack up with statistics on the matter etc.

Without being able to do that, they're not making an informed decision. They're making a misinformed decision.

yet you complained about the "daily mail" is that their right yes or no ? You falling into your own assumptions about others Your " I am the gospel " attitude.. hint people are different their choices not yours alone...

No, I didn't complain that it's on the right.

Right wing news is fine. Hate based misinformation isn't fine.

Freedom of speech innit, the Mail writes some hateful provocative shite, ‘some’ of their readers get angry, we laugh at them .

yes, people have the right to consume bullshit and lies. That is not being informed though.

"I do find it interesting when discussing "Daily Mail Readers" that the assumption is the term is being used literally.

When I say "Daily Mail Readers" I fully contend some of those I am thinking of have NEVER read the mail in their life.

Also people who read the mail aren't necessarily included.

For me it is a catch all description of the elements of society that are right wing and always on the lookout for the next thing to be angry about, which will not impact their lives the slightest bit.

Why "Daily Mail Readers" because the Daily Mail specialises in farming the rage of people like this.

And most who do not fall into the category have a good idea what you mean when you say it.

Similar (but not quite the same, given the strawman aspect of it) to how the right talks about "communists/marxists" when very few of the people they are talking about are ACTUALLY communist/marxist.

[this has been an opinion]

Guess freedom of speech does not fit into your narrative no matter how silly it is. Lol guess you are the Marxist/ communist and want the state to control a narrative that you perceive."

Freedom of speech is not freedom to be an idiot, remember that. Your forefathers probably thought people would actually use that right in a responsible manner, to enable people to critcally think.

Basically in a layman's terms according to OP people who take information from the daily mail are ignorant and stupid in a eloquent way.

. Well said. The so called tolerant open minded elite left and only tolerant if you agree with their views. Some of the hatred that they direct against those with whom they disagree is quite disgracefull. Just as well that they are only a very vocal but small minority. They simply so not want anyone to have a different opinion ...

They constantly claim to be experts on the Daily Mail yet never even read it. .These people have difficult recognising it's success. To have a readership of one million readers is considerable success. Those constantly criticising the Daily Mail fail to recognise this .

I don;t care that they are right wing. A person has a right to be a hateful spineless bigot if they choose.

I have a problem with something that calls itself a newspaper which people READ not watch. Peddling blatant misinformation, lies and propaganda.

If they stuck to the truth I would still disagree but I wouldn't mock their entire existence.

I already answered this, yes people can choose to read the daily mail.

That doesn't change whether or not it is filled with lies and misinformation.

You are trying to take the answer to a question and make it mean something completely different, that is not the way the world works.

Someone choosing a lie does not make it true

I score a perfect 10 for irony

You do? what lies have you been chewing down? or did you mean

"You score a perfect 10" even then it wouldn't be irony, but rather hypocrisy.

Did you read the thread or just jump in on something you could try and bash me with? and you jump him for his decision ...lol "

what decision? to take a pot shot at me?

individuality just like LGBTQ just like you scream but it literally comes down to individual choices.choose your words wisely. It's a basic understanding of the others not just you.

Friendly advice, going after someone for being a lefty in a politics forum is kinda fair game.

But to make a rash generalised statement based on a protected class like being LGBTQIA+ in the pejorative is sliding dangerously close to bigotry.

Might wanna rethink that in the future.

not being a bigot it's their choice to love someone indifferent is it not? Unless you can prove me otherwise. They not following a a society norm now are they ? It's is up to their individuality. Is it not ? You the one screaming " bigotry " to my statement .of course you would I expect nothing less.

now you know why people choose to read the "Daily mail" right left and in between. It's the utter assumptions of people like you that they try and differentiate their own actions. You answered your own question.

So was how I was close to being a bigot again? In any of my statements ? You stated that did you not ? Try being more understanding of others and not assume . You did and then try and deflect to fit your agenda. Ok am I a bigot or not make your mind up in that assumption. You have a habit of deflection. SIMPLE YES OR NO?

A. Blue is a bigot

B. She is not.

Or shall I do a yes or no multiple choice. What do you prefer? Individualism clearly has no rights in your eyes.

That is an extra level of audacity to tell me to have more understanding and not assume when that is ALL you have done in this thread. You have misread what is there, made up things to fill in the gaps.

Then taken those fantasies and used them to back up your completely unrelated arguments.

Why are you so adamant on making everything binary, yes/no left/right the world is more complicated than that.

I never called you a bigot because I cannot with certainty make that claim.

You are the one struggling in this "debate" if we can call it that, you are floundering and that is why you have to shift the goal posts so much, construct strawmen and use ad hominem.

If you cannot form an actual argument, bow out.

"I do find it interesting when discussing "Daily Mail Readers" that the assumption is the term is being used literally.

When I say "Daily Mail Readers" I fully contend some of those I am thinking of have NEVER read the mail in their life.

Also people who read the mail aren't necessarily included.

For me it is a catch all description of the elements of society that are right wing and always on the lookout for the next thing to be angry about, which will not impact their lives the slightest bit.

Why "Daily Mail Readers" because the Daily Mail specialises in farming the rage of people like this.

And most who do not fall into the category have a good idea what you mean when you say it.

Similar (but not quite the same, given the strawman aspect of it) to how the right talks about "communists/marxists" when very few of the people they are talking about are ACTUALLY communist/marxist.

[this has been an opinion]"

So all newspapers should be left wing mouthpieces?

Can't wait to read about the 5 year plan and the 50% increase in tractor production.

Are you sure? How do you know? On the other thread Mr Hayturners was claiming nurses and care workers read The Faily Heil but again, how does he know?

Of course there may be some but I can assure you both that they will be a tiny minority of the readership. How do I know? Because I have spent a significant chunk of my career in advertising and every media outlet has to provide detailed breakdowns of their audience to be able to justify their advertising charges.

The vast majority of Faily Heil readers are retired. End of.

You did and then try and deflect to fit your agenda. Ok am I a bigot or not make your mind up in that assumption. You have a habit of deflection. SIMPLE YES OR NO?

A. Blue is a bigot

B. She is not.

Or shall I do a yes or no multiple choice. What do you prefer? Individualism clearly has no rights in your eyes.

The Daily Mail has a high percentage of readers / supporters who are members of the LGBTQ community. Shock horror! Who would imagine that?

It will be denied of course. "

Only word I would deny is the word "High", of course LGBTQIA+ read the Daily Heil. The LGBTQIA+ is not a monolith.

I object to high because it is both a subjective word, what is "high"? and also until the LGBTQIA+ is a "High" percentage of society as a whole, that would imply a disproportionate amount of them read the mail. That I find hard to believe.

Really would love for you to cite something that proves me wrong though.

It looks like the Daily Mail appeals to balanced successful people . If the average age of a reader is sixty , it is likely that more readers are working than retired . There will of course be those in society who sneer at the Daily Mail . Their opinions become irrelevant when we consider its vast circulation . The average age of the readership probably indicates that its readers ar better informed than most and use life experience to make decisions .

TRAVEL

60% more likely to spend £2,500 or more on holidays in the last 12 months

Daily Mail readers are 19% more likely to have visited a long haul travel destination in the last year

AT HOME

Daily Mail readers have an average of £47,902 in savings and investments

Reader have over £22k more in savings and investments than the UK average

all I take from that is if you are a 60yo with saving of 50k, you probably shouldn't be spunking too much on holidays and cars. No wonder they are protective of the state pension.

Actually you’d be suprised, some people actually read the rag to laugh at their rabid stupidity.

Its a considerable success because it allows haters to hate, little englanders to be little and hypochondriacs to be hyper, all with a smattering of gossip for extra measure.

I once spoke to an actual daily Mail reader, all they went on was about immigration and foreigners taking over the UK, and stuff about how cancer is due to drinking filtered water from A Brita jug.

I do suspect the person also went to a few UKIP meetings also, but that was because the person had in his car window a “I support Nige!” sticker.

"So you saying the "Daily mail " is a individual choice?,Simple semantics yes or no ? Not that hard.. a simple yes or no not a but...I accepted Biden you can't accept a news to source. Here let me explain .. people choose you do not according to the majority.yoy can discuss but do not think your arrogance is the only decision.

I already answered this, yes people can choose to read the daily mail.

That doesn't change whether or not it is filled with lies and misinformation.

You are trying to take the answer to a question and make it mean something completely different, that is not the way the world works.

Someone choosing a lie does not make it true

I score a perfect 10 for irony

You do? what lies have you been chewing down? or did you mean

"You score a perfect 10" even then it wouldn't be irony, but rather hypocrisy.

Did you read the thread or just jump in on something you could try and bash me with? and you jump him for his decision ...lol here is the irony he explained .. you degrade people as a whole not the individual. Weird

Yeah, that's not irony you the one with the hive mentality are you not? Why do the watch the daily mail again?"

We read the daily Mail in the UK, I think the Daily Fail has a channel in the States, mainly due to the fact that they couldn’t get a license here, but could change with Paul Dacre becoming a Lord.

It might be that the information which you are supplied is not as accurate as you think. If the average age of a Daily Mail reader is 60 it would tend to imply that more are working than are retired. Can you breakdown your statistic in more detail as to how you came to the conclusion than the majority of Daily Mail readers are retired. It appears that your source is inaccurate.

Oh Pat we can all do a google search and click on one of the top results ie Hurst Media.

You need to dig deeper. The readership skews higher to female and older demographics. These are generally (not exclusively) not working. So I should have said retired or left employment/not working (but that could be misconstrued as claiming benefits - they aren’t as also massively skews to ABC1).

What is interesting is the stats you bother to quote paint a sorry picture. These are the nearly haves. The squeezed middle. Those who don’t quite have enough for a comfortable retirement that they have either started or are soon to start. They are angry that retirement won’t be what they had hoped for. They are fertile ground to exploit that anger and find someone to point the finger of blame at.

The people they should be angry at are the super rich who have hoovered up all the wealth, through tax evasion and Tory enabled Govt policy to protect their interests BUT the Faily Heil is an excellent bit of distractive propaganda that points the finger at the poor, the needy, the helpless and says “these people are the reason you will not have as good a retirement as you had hoped for”.

It is just the same technique used by the Nazis to create an environment that accepts the persecution of certain sectors in society.

. Or maybe nor everyone is obsessed with money or status. On one occasion you took the opportunity to reveal that you consider yourself to the in the top 1% of people by wealth in the country. Some people on here appear to have difficulty accepting that there is more to life than money. To most people health and family are far more important plus a degree of financial security. Most people simply accept that they will never be super wealthy and are happy with a comfortable lifestyle .They are not obsessed with how much tax the superrich pay or non dom status . They probably have enough common sense to realise that increasing tax on the super rich would simply lead to them taking their investment to another county and the UK would lose whatever tax it already collects .

Maybe the Daily Mail readers are contented and the exact opposite of what you portray. They are not obsessed with money , just need a comfortable life style. Health comes first , not wealth.

Because I have spent a significant chunk of my career in advertising and every media outlet has to provide detailed breakdowns of their audience to be able to justify their advertising charges.

The vast majority of Faily Heil readers are retired. End of. It might be that the information which you are supplied is not as accurate as you think. If the average age of a Daily Mail reader is 60 it would tend to imply that more are working than are retired. Can you breakdown your statistic in more detail as to how you came to the conclusion than the majority of Daily Mail readers are retired. It appears that your source is inaccurate.

Oh Pat we can all do a google search and click on one of the top results ie Hurst Media.

You need to dig deeper. The readership skews higher to female and older demographics. These are generally (not exclusively) not working. So I should have said retired or left employment/not working (but that could be misconstrued as claiming benefits - they aren’t as also massively skews to ABC1).

What is interesting is the stats you bother to quote paint a sorry picture. These are the nearly haves. The squeezed middle. Those who don’t quite have enough for a comfortable retirement that they have either started or are soon to start. They are angry that retirement won’t be what they had hoped for. They are fertile ground to exploit that anger and find someone to point the finger of blame at.

The people they should be angry at are the super rich who have hoovered up all the wealth, through tax evasion and Tory enabled Govt policy to protect their interests BUT the Faily Heil is an excellent bit of distractive propaganda that points the finger at the poor, the needy, the helpless and says “these people are the reason you will not have as good a retirement as you had hoped for”.

It is just the same technique used by the Nazis to create an environment that accepts the persecution of certain sectors in society.. Or maybe nor everyone is obsessed with money or status. On one occasion you took the opportunity to reveal that you consider yourself to the in the top 1% of people by wealth in the country. Some people on here appear to have difficulty accepting that there is more to life than money. To most people health and family are far more important plus a degree of financial security. Most people simply accept that they will never be super wealthy and are happy with a comfortable lifestyle .They are not obsessed with how much tax the superrich pay or non dom status . They probably have enough common sense to realise that increasing tax on the super rich would simply lead to them taking their investment to another county and the UK would lose whatever tax it already collects .

Maybe the Daily Mail readers are contented and the exact opposite of what you portray. They are not obsessed with money , just need a comfortable life style. Health comes first , not wealth. "

Lolz

Earlier on you were bragging about DM readers being more wealthy.

Which is it?

"Basically the "elite left" thinks that people can't make their own decisions. OP posted twice over the same issues. To try and gain some semblance of they are right.. Well said. The so called tolerant open minded elite left and only tolerant if you agree with their views. Some of the hatred that they direct against those with whom they disagree is quite disgracefull. Just as well that they are only a very vocal but small minority. They simply so not want anyone to have a different opinion ...

They constantly claim to be experts on the Daily Mail yet never even read it. .These people have difficult recognising it's success. To have a readership of one million readers is considerable success. Those constantly criticising the Daily Mail fail to recognise this .

Actually you’d be suprised, some people actually read the rag to laugh at their rabid stupidity.

Its a considerable success because it allows haters to hate, little englanders to be little and hypochondriacs to be hyper, all with a smattering of gossip for extra measure.

I once spoke to an actual daily Mail reader, all they went on was about immigration and foreigners taking over the UK, and stuff about how cancer is due to drinking filtered water from A Brita jug.

I do suspect the person also went to a few UKIP meetings also, but that was because the person had in his car window a “I support Nige!” sticker.

So you are basing all your offensive assumptions on one conversation?

Dear God, do people not have anything better to focus on.

By the way, I am not a Mail reader.

Hitting too close to home, if there is all that rage coming out?

You seem more like a daily express reader, for those detached from reality.

Yet another incorrect assumption

I think I’ve identified the problem. It’s people that rely on a newspaper of choice to form any opinion on anything. They assume that everyone else does the same.

I rely on Fab. Tom and Hay specifically

However while one may not use the newspaper to form an opinion, often it's the newspapers that (in part) determine what we think about.

The other bit, imo, is we focus on subjects we feel can offer an opinion on.

A. Blue is a bigot

B. She is not.

The Daily Mail has a high percentage of readers / supporters who are members of the LGBTQ community. Shock horror! Who would imagine that?

The word “maybe” is doing a lot of heavy lifting there! Be honest, you don’t actually know do you?

The stats you quoted are very clearly in “squeezed middle” territory. Many of those people are rightly pi55sed off. They are seeing the promise of a comfortable retirement bring eroded. The problem is many of them are complicit in creating the environment we now live in. But it is really hard to admit much of what you thought to be true or how you have voted may actually be at the root cause of your problems. It is hard to admit you have been duped into supporting things that will ultimately harm you and yours. So they double down and focus that anger outwards and towards others (helpfully steered by years of DM editorial).

I suppose I should be flattered you remember a single post by me! Yep I have done alright. I wish more people could have done alright too.

There is correlation between people who believe bollocks. IE Boris has British interests at heart, Brexit is a good idea, Trump is a good guy, climate change isn't happening, aliens built the pyramids etc. And the people who copy and paste or link to the Daily Mail.

It's a strong correlation.

. Who said anything about people being duped? Most rational people simply accept that there are certain issues over which the government has no control in the short term. We cannot blame the government for the world energy crisis . On which issues do you believe people were duped . Are you trying to suggest that members of the public are incapable of undertaking their own research and should simply accept your opinion ?

it's chicken and egg.... But if newspapers and opinions didn't have correlation you'd expect all papers to have about a 52/48 split across its readership ...

The negative economic impacts of Brexit combined with Quantitative Easing has caused the devaluation of the £ against both the $ and € meaning it is costing the UK even more to buy energy. So that is UK Govt policy. The pandemic (not the Govt fault) compounded that along with the mostly abysmal handling resulting in a huge waste of £ and the largest transfer of state assets into private hands in history (all the fault of this Govt). Yeah duped!

Interesting fact about the Daily Mail:

The chairman is Jonathan Harmsworth, 4th Viscount Rothermere, who inherited the media empire founded by his great-grandfather Harold and his brother Alfred a century earlier. Harold Sidney Harmsworth is also known to be an admirer of Mussolini and a supporter of N*zi Germany.

. The devaluation of the pound is simply a case of swings and roundabouts. Companies exporting abroad are hardly going to be complainin nor are pension funds with money invested abroad or for that matter anyone bringing money into the UK. It is hardly a question of being duped, you simply have to face economic reality

Hang on, wasn’t N Germany defeated and Mussolini thrown out and killed at the end of WW2?

"So was how I was close to being a bigot again? In any of my statements ? You stated that did you not ? Try being more understanding of others and not assume . You did and then try and deflect to fit your agenda. Ok am I a bigot or not make your mind up in that assumption. You have a habit of deflection. SIMPLE YES OR NO?

A. Blue is a bigot

B. She is not.

Or shall I do a yes or no multiple choice. What do you prefer? Individualism clearly has no rights in your eyes.

The Daily Mail has a high percentage of readers / supporters who are members of the LGBTQ community. Shock horror! Who would imagine that?

It will be denied of course.

Are you sure? How do you know? On the other thread Mr Hayturners was claiming nurses and care workers read The Faily Heil but again, how does he know?

Of course there may be some but I can assure you both that they will be a tiny minority of the readership. How do I know? Because I have spent a significant chunk of my career in advertising and every media outlet has to provide detailed breakdowns of their audience to be able to justify their advertising charges.

The vast majority of Faily Heil readers are retired. End of. It might be that the information which you are supplied is not as accurate as you think. If the average age of a Daily Mail reader is 60 it would tend to imply that more are working than are retired. Can you breakdown your statistic in more detail as to how you came to the conclusion than the majority of Daily Mail readers are retired. It appears that your source is inaccurate.

Oh Pat we can all do a google search and click on one of the top results ie Hurst Media.

You need to dig deeper. The readership skews higher to female and older demographics. These are generally (not exclusively) not working. So I should have said retired or left employment/not working (but that could be misconstrued as claiming benefits - they aren’t as also massively skews to ABC1).

What is interesting is the stats you bother to quote paint a sorry picture. These are the nearly haves. The squeezed middle. Those who don’t quite have enough for a comfortable retirement that they have either started or are soon to start. They are angry that retirement won’t be what they had hoped for. They are fertile ground to exploit that anger and find someone to point the finger of blame at.

The people they should be angry at are the super rich who have hoovered up all the wealth, through tax evasion and Tory enabled Govt policy to protect their interests BUT the Faily Heil is an excellent bit of distractive propaganda that points the finger at the poor, the needy, the helpless and says “these people are the reason you will not have as good a retirement as you had hoped for”.

It is just the same technique used by the Nazis to create an environment that accepts the persecution of certain sectors in society.. Or maybe nor everyone is obsessed with money or status. On one occasion you took the opportunity to reveal that you consider yourself to the in the top 1% of people by wealth in the country. Some people on here appear to have difficulty accepting that there is more to life than money. To most people health and family are far more important plus a degree of financial security. Most people simply accept that they will never be super wealthy and are happy with a comfortable lifestyle .They are not obsessed with how much tax the superrich pay or non dom status . They probably have enough common sense to realise that increasing tax on the super rich would simply lead to them taking their investment to another county and the UK would lose whatever tax it already collects .

Maybe the Daily Mail readers are contented and the exact opposite of what you portray. They are not obsessed with money , just need a comfortable life style. Health comes first , not wealth.

The word “maybe” is doing a lot of heavy lifting there! Be honest, you don’t actually know do you?

The stats you quoted are very clearly in “squeezed middle” territory. Many of those people are rightly pi55sed off. They are seeing the promise of a comfortable retirement bring eroded. The problem is many of them are complicit in creating the environment we now live in. But it is really hard to admit much of what you thought to be true or how you have voted may actually be at the root cause of your problems. It is hard to admit you have been duped into supporting things that will ultimately harm you and yours. So they double down and focus that anger outwards and towards others (helpfully steered by years of DM editorial).

I suppose I should be flattered you remember a single post by me! Yep I have done alright. I wish more people could have done alright too.. Who said anything about people being duped? Most rational people simply accept that there are certain issues over which the government has no control in the short term. We cannot blame the government for the world energy crisis . On which issues do you believe people were duped . Are you trying to suggest that members of the public are incapable of undertaking their own research and should simply accept your opinion ?

The negative economic impacts of Brexit combined with Quantitative Easing has caused the devaluation of the £ against both the $ and € meaning it is costing the UK even more to buy energy. So that is UK Govt policy. The pandemic (not the Govt fault) compounded that along with the mostly abysmal handling resulting in a huge waste of £ and the largest transfer of state assets into private hands in history (all the fault of this Govt). Yeah duped!. The devaluation of the pound is simply a case of swings and roundabouts. Companies exporting abroad are hardly going to be complainin nor are pension funds with money invested abroad or for that matter anyone bringing money into the UK. It is hardly a question of being duped, you simply have to face economic reality "

Oh dear. Swings and roundabouts! Oh dearie me. Stick to the parody and satire Pat, economics not so. Constantly moving goalposts.

Simple question...has a devalued £ made it more expensive for the UK to buy oil and gas which trade in $?

Everyone is paying more but the UK is paying even more. You’d understand that if you didn’t rely on the Faily Heil

You know I have stated before that I do read it when I have to in order to check where the misinformation is.

I read multiple sources and check the reliability ratings of those sources and also look into what external factors and agendas are attached.

The DM fails spectacularly, regularly

We're all well aware of the quality of the journalism and the bias of the DM.

Hence why "Daily Mail Reader" is a common insult used in Britain. (As some have pointed out here it's offensive, so isn't something I will use again). But the point is, being a DM reader has certain connotations. Just like being a FT reader or Guardian reader does.

"Basically the "elite left" thinks that people can't make their own decisions. OP posted twice over the same issues. To try and gain some semblance of they are right.. Well said. The so called tolerant open minded elite left and only tolerant if you agree with their views. Some of the hatred that they direct against those with whom they disagree is quite disgracefull. Just as well that they are only a very vocal but small minority. They simply so not want anyone to have a different opinion ...

They constantly claim to be experts on the Daily Mail yet never even read it. .These people have difficult recognising it's success. To have a readership of one million readers is considerable success. Those constantly criticising the Daily Mail fail to recognise this .

Actually you’d be suprised, some people actually read the rag to laugh at their rabid stupidity.

Its a considerable success because it allows haters to hate, little englanders to be little and hypochondriacs to be hyper, all with a smattering of gossip for extra measure.

I once spoke to an actual daily Mail reader, all they went on was about immigration and foreigners taking over the UK, and stuff about how cancer is due to drinking filtered water from A Brita jug.

I do suspect the person also went to a few UKIP meetings also, but that was because the person had in his car window a “I support Nige!” sticker.

So you are basing all your offensive assumptions on one conversation?

All national papers have a bias towards something on both the right and the left. I won’t buy the Daily Mail because it’s a conservative supporting paper, plus some of its writers are pretty unpalatable.

Yes, but it’s not just the Daily Mail that has done stuff that is disgusting, There are other tabloids that have done stuff that is frankly revolting and has no place in society. We shouldn’t just focus on one paper we should focus on every paper that brings decency into dispute. The only way these papers learn is to hit them on the bottom line, which is sales or revenue from advertising.

I won’t buy any tabloid and that includes the Mail. I don’t know if it was because they were more high profile In 80’s because they sold more passers than any other but I remember the vile articles in other tabloids wrote about gay people and the inference around HIV and AIDS. That sort of stuff was part of the reason some gay and bisexual teenagers like me hid their sexuality because it wasn’t safe to be open as gay in a lot of towns and cities in the 80’s.

I don’t like any tabloid because they are reactionary and diverse. But I guess we live in a democracy and it’s allowed.

I agree with you. But even if you are left leaning (like I am) I can’t leave out criticism of the Daily Mirror. They have found to lie and publish mistruths. That’s why I’ve said all tabloids because it’s more than right or left, although the vast majority of papers that publish mistruths are on the right.

There's a fallacy that runs through many of these posts, that freedom of the press is somehow good for democracy in all circumstances.

As you can see in our country, this is clearly not the case.

When the vast bulk of the media is owned by the wealthy it massively distorts the political dialogue. It is a tool that those in power wield against us.

The idea that newspapers in the UK are all the same isn't exactly accurate

Of the Daily National papers in the UK only one is scored as Low Factual Reporting and Low Credibility by Media Bias Fact Check.

Most have mixed/medium ratings with only the Times and Financial Times scoring High.

This may be rough to follow because formatting is not easy in these posts:

Daily Mail Bias: Right Factual Reporting: Low Credibility: Low

The Sun Bias: Right Factual Reporting: Mixed Credibility: Medium

Daily Express Bias: Right Factual Reporting: Mixed Credibility: Medium

The Independent Bias: Left-Center Factual Reporting: Mixed Credibility: Medium

The Guardian Bias: Left-Center Factual Reporting: Mixed Credibility: Medium

The Mirror Bias: Left-Center Factual Reporting: Mixed Credibility: Medium

The Telegraph Bias: Right Factual Reporting: Mixed Credibility: Medium

The Observer Bias: Left-Center Factual Reporting: Mixed

The Daily Star Bias: Right-Center Factual Reporting: Mixed

The Times Bias: Right-Center Factual Reporting: High Credibility: High

The Financial Times Bias: Least Biased Factual Reporting: High Credibility: High

Yeah most the papers have the same level of reliability and accuracy... but the Daily Mail is demonstrably worse than the rest, that is why it gets singled out

"It’s not called the ‘daily fail’ for nothing

Prefer the Faily Heil as that really sums them up best.

So tedious. Move on.

Lol DM one of the most popular news sources in the world. Yet I guess according to this post people are to uneducated to make their own decisions.

I don't think it's even close to being the most popular in the world.

And even if it was, how is this related to people believing the wildly inaccurate, misleading articles?

Currently the Mail sells circa one million copies and has a readership of circa two million so it is the UKs most popular paid for newspaper .

My guess is that those who describe the articles as being inaccurate never actually read or buy the newspaper and are simply repeating often repeated cliches .

Publish inaccurate information and you are in danger of being sued . To make an objective review of its content , you would need to read at least every page of one thousand copies and identify any information which you believed to be inaccurate . You would probably struggle to find any inaccurate information

I guess this may depend on what's included and how you measure it, but the sun has typically always beaten DM. And the metro seems to top teh charts atm.

So maybe we can get it as far as one the most popular in the UK ...

I going global DM always in the top 10. Just like fox news the number 1 news outlets here. It's just entertainment. So if you think news effects alot of the "Uneducated". Biden shouldn't have won in that retrospect. It's purely entertainment. Both sides of the Atlantic.

Daily Mail readers mostly voted for brexit.

Case closed.

Lol"
Fox news viewership voted for biden then right?

Or, we just look at the information above that suggests the DM is the least accurate, and most biased newspaper in the UK.

The number of people buying it, is unrelated to how inaccurate the articles are.

I don't get the argument that more popular = better.

By that argument Justin Beiber is more important to music than the Bruce Springsteet, U2, Aerosmith, ABBA, Phil Collins, Metallica, Lady gaga, Adel or Rod Stweart.

Or Jeffrey Archer is more relevant to literature than JRR Tolkein, Roald Dahl, C.S. Lewis or Ian Fleming.
