Not sure if this is the right place for this, but WHY are MNHQ still passing on (and no doubt receiving money for) media requests from the DM??

As a poster on the recent DM "shy child" thread pointed out, why haven't MN, as a parenting website, stopped ALL dealings with DM when companies like Lego have committed to doing so?

Hi folks. In case you hadn't spotted it here's what JustineMumsnet said about this on the Daily Mail's media request thread earlier, which might answer a few of these questions:

Hello everyone. No money exchanged hands here at all, honest - we don't charge for media requests. Back in the day we did charge #30 per request but we don't now and haven't for a while.
We do tend to filter media requests that come direct to us - and only post those we think are from proper kosher journos on subjects not likely to cause a bunfight. Obviously some people have very strong feelings about the Daily Mail but obviously lots of Mumsnetters read it (we can tell from Google analytics as well as our annual census).
I agree the regular lifting of whole MN threads is a bit much and we are looking at our rights here. Will keep you all posted.

Hope that fills you in a bit but do let us know if you've any more questions.
