Why do people hate the Daily Mail?

The only people I know who read the Daily Mail are baby boomers who live in small conservative semi-rural villages

Cos the Grauniad is definitely known for its high quality spelling and grammar

It's not 'snobbery' to point out that the paper is ridiculous. Every single page is just, like, "MUSLIMS MUSLIMS IMMIGRANTS WOMEN LESBIANS GAY PEOPLE THEY ALL SUCK waahhh ROMANIANS!!!!111111"

Besides, the UK's been talking about immigration so much that I feel sick even looking at Nigel Farage's ****ing face. It's disgusting. Pitting the working classes against each other / against foreigners in order to distract them from the "real evil" of capitalism etc isn't exactly a brand new strategy tbh.

You forgot to add that their 'journalists' often make very obvious spelling mistakes. I must say the Daily Mail is like drugs; it's bad for me but I get addicted to it- especially the claims on immigrants and Muslims (which I find amusing).

From the Grauniad? Really?!

The Daily Mail and the Guardian are just two sides of the same hate filled coin. One makes you self flagellate (if you are the majority) and blame the majority (if you are the minority) and the other makes you hate the minority, Ok the majority may be more able to handle the burden of hatred, but they are both hate filled rags, filled with inflammatory bile and clickbait.

The Guardian has hate in it but definitely not as much as the Daily Heil. Let's be real. They deserve an award for that. Opening up the Daily Mail site is like being involved in the haters ball on Chappelle's Show.

I disagree, I would say the Guardian has exactly as much, and there are plenty more loons in the comment is free section that there are Richard Littlejohns at the Daily Mail

I never quoted from the Guardian, and the Guardian is not my newspaper of choice.

I dislike the Guardian too; as much as I detested Gove, I felt that the Guardian had the urge to publish an 'article' every other day condemning his reforms- it was a bit immature of what is supposed to be a reputable newspaper.

My choice of newspaper is the Times; I just feel its political bias (although there is a very good case which says that news can never be reported completely objectively) is less than the others (although my piano teacher, who likes the Guardian and the Telegraph (as the two give him two contrasting viewpoints), calls the Times 'tabloidy'). The Telegraph isn't bad either.

Good response +1

the commenters, who themselves probably only have a GCSE in Applied Racism

To be honest, condemning the DM for its spelling and grammar is a bit like assassinating Hitler because of his poor bin collection policies.

to be fair to the dailymail, they have improved a lot recently and have been more balanced. obviously it is still right wing but its not totally one sided like the guardian

What?! The Daily Mail is a real news site?! I thought it was a parody site like Onion

Oh well... I got some laughs. You know you're gonna have a fun read when the an article begins with "foreign", "Muslim" or "immigrants".

They hate Mesut Ozil, so I hate the Daily Mail.

The analogy is an unfair one because global capitalism, Zionism and patriarchy are, you know, actually damaging things, whereas immigration generally just isn't - at least not to anything like the same scale. I don't dispute that the Guardian occasionally gets things very wrong and looks for sensation/outrage where there probably isn't, but at least it's full of people that actually recognize that Zionism, Capitalism, and patriarchy actually need interrogating in a way that immigration and students just don't.

The Mail believes that the world's greatest evils are multiculturalism, students, smoking marijuana, and immigration. The Guardian believes that the world's greatest evils are the things you mention above. For that reason alone I'm more likely to tolerate The Guardian making a mistake or indulging in some unnecessary and misguided hyperbole than I'm likely to tolerate The Mail doing the same.
