Oh! And another thing! The DM is on the (what I believe to be) right side regarding women’s rights and safe spaces etc
I do think you have a point there Fanny, at least two female journalists have left The Guardian finding their positions untenable there, the latest being Hadley Freeman who now writes for The Sunday Times.
I remember over on MN a while a go, there was a thread about The Guardian's stance on always supporting Owen Jones' point of view and they even mentioned, I believe, can't remember the exact details, evenings promoted by that paper showcasing Owen Jones and Frankie Boyle, the general consensus being
A couple of mysogynists
I'm sometimes perplexed by The Mail because at times it does have serious journalists who would be more at home at say The Guardian, pop up and write for them as indeed its produces articles about matters we should know about that don't always get the coverage in papers that would be deemed more heavyweight.
I'll admit to getting on to the Mail on Line, not least of all for the sidebar of shame that seems to give my husband a certain amount of rage and a lot of questions such as "who is this person?" and "what does "posing up a storm mean?" I can only reply "no idea" but only worry if "I start doing what you might imagine that could be" [shock} I feel I've turned to the aforementioned sidebar since the magazines in hairdressers disappeared after Covid. I can't over-estimate enough how much I feel those hours pouring over illuminating literary publications such as OK, Hello, Heat and Closer have impacted on my well being, I've no idea who anyone is now apart from the omnipresent Katie "if the Price is right" I'll be getting another lip/boob/bum implant/engaged next week and Gemma "I'm a diva/incredible weight loss" Collins.
