...Ha. As do many of my friends and none are bigots.<br /><br />I was merely pointing out the injustice of making a sweeping generalisation about Mail readers :) Dawn Younghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14651577780658563070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1598326900179239696.post-67882356114307592332013-03-06T16:29:32.830+00:002013-03-06T16:29:32.830+00:00"In my lifetime I have genuinely met more nar..."In my lifetime I have genuinely met more narrow minded and bigoted Sun readers than I have Daily Mail readers. So what does that tell you?"<br /><br />That the average Sun reader is generally more bigoted than your average Mail reader.<br /><br />For me it is more about the newspaper bias than the opinions of the readership. Newspapers have a responsibility to inform educate and entertain. Most tabloids focus on the latter and disregard the rest.<br /><br />By the way, some of my best friends read tabloids ;)dharmamonkeyhttp://www.dharmamonkey.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1598326900179239696.post-75695587841745522772013-03-06T12:06:25.764+00:002013-03-06T12:06:25.764+00:00And most of the people who do tend to not have a b...And most of the people who do tend to not have a bloody clue what they are talking about!xxDawn Younghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14651577780658563070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1598326900179239696.post-81412075749982732122013-03-05T20:33:25.806+00:002013-03-05T20:33:25.806+00:00I'm not a big fan of newspapers but I totally ...I'm not a big fan of newspapers but I totally agree with you on this.

I read the ...I couldn't agree with this more!! I read the Daily Mail but it doesn't mean I agree with everything it says. I just find the same thing as you - it speaks about politics etc in a language that makes it simple enough for me to understand, without talking to me like I'm thick or sticking a pair of boobs next to the quote as some of the tabloids do. When reading the Daily Mail, I've seen articles that make me rage, but I just see them for what they are and go and read another article. I'm not interested in pushing my views on other people, nor getting into an argument, I just want to know - in general - what is going on in the world. xxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04158648872082551305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1598326900179239696.post-22803129678240620002013-03-05T12:45:36.707+00:002013-03-05T12:45:36.707+00:00Not shallow at all!

I can never understand why people who make a big fuss about hating the Mail on twitter etc are ironically just generating the thing more publicity by publicly slating it. <br /><br />I don't have any regular subscriptions to a paper as I don't often have enough time to read one, but I sometimes flick through the Times or the Telegraph in the week, and used to pick up the Sunday Times because I preferred it's inserts. Shallow I know, but I don't read any magazines so that was my 'fix'. charhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01424341312136077664noreply@blogger.com
