to think that the Daily Mail and Mail online are one and the same and what's on Mail online reflects the Daily Mail

Seems they are trying to disown Hopkins in a paper editorial

It seems she writes for Mail online and when the Guardian attacked the Daily Mail, they should have attacked Mail Online.

Really Hmm

Blimey, that's some proper Trump-speak right there. They're one and the same, surely?

MissionItsPossible · 22/06/2017 14:21

Ha, what a joke. So how come it's dailymail.co.uk then?

And why does it have THIS on the bottom of their website:

Published by Associated Newspapers Ltd
Part of the Daily Mail, The Mail on Sunday & Metro Media Group

Seems to have been an editorial in the Daily Mail today attacking the Guardian and calling them purveyors of hate.

Wtf!

Pure double talk. Like those fucking double glazing companies that stiff your money, close down their business and open up the same day with a slightly different name.

Oy Daily Mail/Mail online - you're FUCKING LYING ARSEHOLES MADE OF SHITE!

MaisieDotes · 22/06/2017 14:23

Chancers.

It's quite funny that they want to dissociate themselves so strongly from Mail Online. I imagine whoever edits Mail Online is absolutely furious.

They do have different editorial teams, so they commission separately (Hopkins doesn't write for the print edition) but obviously Mail Online does use a lot of articles that appear in the DM.

Maudlinmaud · 22/06/2017 14:36

I didn't know there was a difference. I suspect many people don't. I was so pleased when KH got the road but became confused when I heard she was still writing for them.

TequilaSunshine · 22/06/2017 14:39

They may have different editorial teams as someone said, but surely they're still the same publication?! Confused
Oh, and what's Hopkins said now that's so bad they're trying to say "nothing to do with us?!"
(Been staying away from the news this week so maybe missed it!)

I thought the difference was that the Daily Mail conducts witch hunts against anyone suspected of inappropriate sexual behaviour, while Mail Online prints endless photos of 14-year-old girls in skimpy outfits?

That sounds about right,

That editorial is correct though. They're separate entities. I've often said this when people on here complain about the Daily Mail, when they're actually talking about something they've seen on the Mail Online. They're not the same thing.

A very different world view? Come on now Daily Mail!

BreakWindandFire · 22/06/2017 17:24

The print versions of Mail on Sunday and Daily Mail are distinctly different, with different editors, but the dailymail.co.uk just mashes the two together. Dacre is editor of the print Daily Mail and also Editor in Chief of the online Mail so to claim they are separate entities is ridiculous.

Was it own jones - his tweets about this are hilarious

The Mail & the Guardian are mirror images of one another, and far more alike than either would admit.

The Huardian preaches sanctimony and censorious political correctness. It patronises ordinary working class people, and despises their patriotism. It turns a blind eye to organised child sexual abuse if the perpetrators are Pakistani Muslims and the victims white.

The Mail preaches xenophobia, racism, Islamophobia and hate for anyone who isn't white. It lies to its ordinary middle-England readers to frighten them into voting for Tory politicians who will act in the interests of corporates, financiers and the rich. It prints nasty misogynistic rubbish which panders to its readers' prurience.

Britain would be a nicer, more tolerant place if they both went bust.

Do you think the daily mail will lift this thread and print? Wink

BreakWindandFire · 22/06/2017 20:04

The Mail is constantly making jibes about lentil-knitting commie Guardianistas, and the Guardian in return pokes fun at the parochial little-Englanders at the Mail. What I can't understand is why the Mail has just gone bat-shit meltdown insane at the Guardian over some relatively innocuous cartoon.
