This article sums it up better than I can. I am, of course, referring to the horrible, homophobic, hateful bucket of bile served up by Jan Moir.
The only good aspect of this saga has been that it appears I was not alone in feeling repulsed by this material. It's good to see that people stand up against this nonsense.
I too was quite frankly horrified by the article. Every article I have ever read by the Daily Mail is injected with sheer ignorance and conservatism.
ReplyDeleteHere, an article published by Jenny Johnston initiates a direct attack on a father who has just tragically lost his 16 year old and blames it on 'bad parenting' http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1198922/After-THREE-teenagers-weeks-plunge-Newquays-cliffs-heart-rending-self-reproach-loving-father.html
Read and weep my friend, but thankfully, we have Charlie Brooker: http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2009/oct/16/stephen-gately-jan-moir
Just goes to show that the Daily Mail really are a bunch of bigoted, sanctimonious old cunts!
