I would not even wipe my bottom with either the Daily Mail or The Daily Express – I suffer the Mail’s sister papers ‘The Metro’ and ‘The Evening Standard’ because they are free and easily picked up on tube or rail journeys in London, where I work; however even these papers are apt to mimic the maliciousness of their siblings. I think any decent person would be revolted by much of the twists and slants, purposefully put on many of the stories within these newspapers’ pages. Yet again and again, we see on sites such as ‘Anglicanmainstream’ or ‘The Christian Institute’ or even some bloggers, that the Daily Mail is frequently quoted as a ‘source’ for some of these sites’/blogs’ ‘true’ stories – which in itself speaks volumes about any real care for verisimilitude.

In truth these papers pander to what people who are either too stupid to think for themselves or too, selfish, cold and callous to think of the wider picture and another’s viewpoint, want to hear.
