This isn't really an AIBU but I wanted to put it here as most days a thread from mumsnet is making it onto the Daily Mail [sad face]... What you write on this site is not just for mumsnet consumption. Don't write anything that you wouldn't be willing to see as click bait for tabloid journalism.
WIBU to update this every week or so with the latest trawlings? Tedious I know but the advice on here is always to collect evidence to support your assertions.
BTW you don't need to actually read the mail to do this, just type mumsnet into their search bar. And its not just the mail. I might expand to include others depending on how long the baby naps for.
Here goes for the last week or so:

YANBU
wonder how many more visitors to mn there has been since dailyfail started pinching the threads...
I think they might get nmw if they manage to find a good enough story to print.
some of those above aren't exactly newsworthy.
I wonder if they'll ever make reporters or be doomed to sit around reading mnet all day, even I'd get bored 
and I post a lot.
Frankly who has time, or even cares, what the DM do.
I really don't get the obsession some posters have with the DM taking articles - I think some secretly covet their threads being copied. It's like juvenile excitement, changing user names to DMareCunts and speculating whether the thread will be in tomorrows paper 
If you write on MN its there for everyone in the world to see for ever anyway.
BTW you don't need to actually read the mail to do this, just type mumsnet into their search bar.
Haha! Is this another of those, "What? Me? Read the Daily Mail? No, no I really don't, honestly..." threads? 
The silly thing is, the Daily Mail has always been Mumsnet's most popular newspaper.
It's certainly the most talked about, most read and most linked to out of all of them.
So you go to the Daily Mail website to click on the search bar, thus bringing more traffic to the site and therefore earning them more money, before coming back to Mumsnet to do a spot of advertising for them and keep everyone talking about their newspaper?
Win - win all round really.
Happy Daily Mail, happy advertisers and happy Mumsnetters who love to moan about it.
