To think the Daily Fail loathe women

The first story is women wearing clothes at Aintree - most of the women are not looking their best and they have taken the worst photographs possible of the worst dressed and most overweight women.

It is not possible that they all looked so dreadful so surely this proves how much they hate women or they'd have thrown in a few normal looking women ?

The last woman they've taken a picture of is a woman vomiting which they think is down to drink - obviously that's not known, for all we know she ate a bad prawn

They hate the things they fear so propagandise against them. From what I can see they are terrified of any woman who isn't Princess Diana. Hmm

'All attention is good' is your opinion, not a fact set in stone Grin

I disagree, I think slagging them off and having others agree creates a negative vibe towards them

It's not like a naughty toddler you can ignore in the hope it will go away

You made me look at the article. I actually think most of the women look like they enjoyed dressing up and are having a laugh - good for them! The only thing I think looks ridiculous are the skyscraper platform heels, which make anyone look a bit daft. Apart from that I love the flamboyance & colour, they look like women who know how to enjoy themselves (how very dare they, eh?).

Posting about them increases 'clicks' on the link, doesn't it? What do clicks achieve if not revenue then?

It's JUST like a naughty toddler that should be ignored, no naughty step for them, just absolute disdain. That can't be achieved if you keep popping your head around to see how naughty they are being...

Trolls, tabloids... all best ignored. It is my opinion but I'd say it veers towards f-a-c-t. Grin

I did hear that they make their money not from selling fish-wrappings, but from website hits.

So every time they publish another article full of arse, and people pass the URL around saying "isn't this a load of arse" they make more advertising revenue.

Block their cookies and stop looking at them.

There's the rub isnt it.

Most people, for all their complaining, do get a bit of something out of looking at the DM. If only to be able to complain about it! Grin
