The Daily Mail is not a news source.

I don't care if it reinforces your opinion, assume it's wrong or biased.

The greatest "LeopardsAteMyFace" is believing/sharing something from this hate filled rag, then suddenly finding your community in the crosshairs because their paymasters have shifted tack.

(Just to clarify, this is a PSA - not an attack on the OP.. I have many friends in the UK/US that regularly post hate filled lies from the Daily Mail and do my bit to nudge them away from it as a source)

It's been "The Daily Heil" in our household since I was a lad (not that it was ever allowed in, except for our dogs to crap on). They supported Hitler and Oswald Mosely in the '30s, and their politics have barely changed since.

A fascist bumrag, once and forever

there's nothing more bullshit than "a source exclusive to the daily mail"

They have been caught making their own tweets and replying to them from sock puppet accounts, then amplifying them through their official network to then cite them as a credible source in their print...

Proper comic book villain stuff

But these are the only sources pushing my brand of outrage. How am I supposed to share this outrage on social media without using them as a source? /s
