Daily Mail lampooned, because they deserve it

The Daily Mail is a British newspaper with a circulation of about two million. In terms of content the nearest American equivalent is, perhaps, Fox News. Their editorial stance is mostly shock and outrage and they pick on the easy targets, like immigration and video games.

I have written on here many times about how the Mail’s reporting of video games seems based on a lack of understanding and as if they don’t want the facts to get in the way of a good story. The worrying thing is that whilst most people who buy The Mail must surely see it as some sort of entertaining ironic parody there might be some who actually believe what they read. I hope not.

The above video is currently doing the rounds and it is brilliant because it so accurately encapsulates what The Mail is about. Enjoy.
