....Are very much on the same page in terms of editorial attitude. Some clever twat once said “true tyranny is the removal of nuance” is this is never clearer than the attitude of Faux News and the Daily Wail.
Everything is right or wrong, black or white, well, preferably white if Faux News or the Daily Wail are concerned!
They both like to spin stories to cause maximum outrage, we saw the ridiculous bitter and angry diatribes on Faux News before last Christmas “SANTA CLAUS IS WHITE!”.
The Daily Wail is the same, a while ago a UK comedian was asked by an American music magazine if he had any advice for young music stars? And he (jokingly) said “I think they should all take heroin because the musicians I listen to did!” He then said “also heroin is a strong drug and it might weed out the weak!”
Headline the following day in the Daily Wail? “COMEDIAN SAYS JUSTIN BEIBER SHOULD TAKE HEROIN!!!”

If the Daily Mail is the rag that features Page 3 Girls, then I'm a fan.
Keely Hazell.... yum.

LC introduced me to the Daily Mail. I once commented on some of the awesome pix she would find for us and she told me that she would nic them from that rag the Daily Mail. Haha! She thought the content sucked the big one but that they had great photographs.
I read it occasionally but I take it all with a grain of salt.

The Daily Mail often gets exclusive pics quickly. I use it for that purpose, too.
Sometimes they get details first as well, but I don't trust them unless I check two other sources for consistency (and verify that those sources don't track back to The Mail).
I often read or scan three articles on the same topic before posting news/updates and pick the most reliable/comprehensive one or piecemeal them together. Kinda sucks, but it's almost required that we do our own fact checking in regards to media reports these days. IMO.

I appreciate that you take the time to do that. I've posted a few things that I've had to go back later & retract because the news source I quoted got it wrong. That happens to me mostly when it's "breaking news".

You have to remember they are all trying to "out-scoop" the other.

What if Santa Claus is a woman? Fox News needs to investigate that further.

No thats the Sun, which is like the Daily Wail for lorry drivers and bricklayers.
Keely Hazell though? Yes she's hawt!
Google image search Lucy Pinder, Rosie Jones and Holly Peers.
You can thank me later.

That's why I haven't read newspapers for a long time they all have a political agenda. You've got the Daily Wail and the Sun on the right and the Daily Mirror and the Guardian on the left.
I can remember an American relative of a mate of mine visiting the UK and I can remember sitting watching a political show on the BBC with him and my mate and he couldn't understand it. He was like “that show was completely bi-partisan! Everyone from all political points of view had equal say and airtime! We don't have shows like this in America!”
Now the BBC is far from perfect but they are more politically fair than most media outlets.

I just checked out Holly Peers.
What a stunner. I love brunettes.
I also kind of imagine Holly and HotD having very similar 'features' if you will.

I think Holly dyed her hair blonde recently I can remember seeing her posing with her baps out (as usual) and he had blondie hair.
My wifes baps are quite similar to Lucy Pinders its like she's trying to keep two soccer balls from escaping from her blouse.
If you ever met her you would probably find it difficult to keep any meaningful eye contact with her.

I look at that and become speechless.
I feel like all I can do is babble and drool.
How embarrassing.

That's Alice Goodwin.
I sometimes forget a face but I never forget a cleavage.

They are very much of the same ilk.
Physical diversity is not readily apparent in the glamour modelling world these days they all have a certain look as it were.
Back in the day they were all different with their own personalities and stuff no one mistook Samantha Fox (no not the American porno star) for Linda Lusardi or Maria Whittaker.

MS might not care the names were mixed up given I gave him an incredibly awesome pair of hooters to check out.
