Just a few Daily Mail stories from the last few days.
Holy diversity! Look what’s happened to Batwoman
Holy sad comics news story cliche number one!
The new Batwoman is to be a “buxom socialite” lesbian and (Gasp! Choke!) comics in general are becoming a bit less white.
Harry Potter heroine ‘encourages violence in girls’
I haven’t read the books, but I have seen the films and Hermione is portrayed as a geek most of the time. So why isn’t there a shocking rise in girls studying as a result? I think someone has a book to sell.
Professor James Garbarino, author of the book, See Jane Hit: Why Girls Are Growing More Violent and What We Can Do About it
There’s a surprise.
(Harry Potter stuff on Amazon
Farmer who builds gallows accused of profiting from death
So it would be okay if he did it for charity? From that offended headline they managed to twist the story round to suggest the return of capital punishment mightn’t be so bad, especially for child murderers.
Brown’s billions are ‘sovietising’ the north
Wythenshawe just looks like a gulag, okay. I know, let’s privatise everything.
Downloads of Net porn hit record high
More than nine million men – almost 40 per cent of the adult male population – logged on to sex websites last year, more than four times as many as the estimated two million in 2000.
The number of women downloading Internet porn soared 30 per cent to 1.4million.
So more women are looking at porn but, somehow, it’s only the men who have “unrealistic” expectations because of what they see? Is Britain a country of hot studs with big dicks and perfect six packs?
And no, dear Daily Mail reporter, adult pornography does not lead to child porn addiction.
Why won’t internet bosses stamp out web porn?
Or, rather, “Why won’t they do what we tell them to do?”
Old graves may be used for double burials
The idea involves reopening untended graves more than 75 years old and transferring the remains to a smaller container, which would be buried deeper in the same plot.
Another coffin could then be lowered into the original space.
Why does Ken Loach loathe his country so much?
Because of people like you?
Technorati tag: Daily Mail, Reactionary, Harry Potter, Porn
Mmmmmh! I think people who read the Mail and the Daily Torygraph should be barred from voting!
They censored me!
I commented on the Why won’t internet bosses stamp out web porn? article and they took a sentence out.
“If Cleanfeed is so vital then why isn’t it being provided free? By charging for it BT are profiting from child porn.
Anyhow, Cleanfeed isn’t a cure all for child porn on the net. It will cut the number of casual and accidental visits to these sites but isn’t going to stop the many other methods of distribution.”
Damn, I’ve got addicted to commenting on the daily mail site. You think the people who write the articles in the daily mail are bad – you should read the comments!
