Weird Daily Mail Articles About Peoples’ Looks

The Mail features numerous articles every day that focus on how badly a celeb or famous person have gone downhill physically, using intrusive pap pics as proof. I am astounded that these sorts of nasty, negative articles are considered newsworthy. Do people really like to read about how someone vaguely famous is looking rough and not on form? Is this really the stuff of national journalism?

I don’t understand why the Mail thinks it is a good idea to publish articles like this. Is it purely for money, as loads of people log onto the Mail online for this stuff, or is it something else?

This article in the Mail is one of a many many articles that show up in every day’s edition, honing in on people in the most horrid and unseemly manner possible. It’s skin crawling to read and blood boiling to cogitate – this is what “news” has come to, amongst the most morally high brow and expressive of papers.

What is weird about this piece in particular, is that like similar Mail articles, the figure of abuse is someone who is middle aged and past their prime. Yet still, the Mail rips them apart as if they ought to be pert and perfect (have you ever met a gorgeous Mail reader? didn;t think so). Madonna is 50 this year. To be fair, she looks fine in the pap picture from the article. In fact, she looks better than most 50 year old women I’ve seen.

So what’s the agenda? This is the interesting question. A flood of Hate articles appear daily, not attacking men, but women for their looks and their disgusting attempts to be individuals and attain dominance in their lives. The Mail can’t have that, so the propaganda is pumped out for the benefit of the arcane tossers amidst the readership.

The Mail is not alone. The millions of Sun and Express readers and their ilk similarly hook themselves upon the line peddled by the right wing media that women are distrustful sluts and worthy of ridicule and abuse once they get old and no longer hold physical/sexual sway.

can anyone give me a good reason for why the Mail writes pieces like this? Why it’s newsworthy to comment on peoples’ looks and physical prowess? It’s weird if you ask me. It’s not normal.

But then, Mail readers aren’t normal. They think they are, but by god are they jolly well fucked up!
