    Thumbs down More Lies From The Daily Mail

    Today, this appeared on the Daily Mail website:

    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencete...d-Dawkins.html

    Richard Dawkins tweeted to confirm that it's lies:

    "@RichardDawkins thinks Santa Claus causes children 'great harm'

    http://dailym.ai/1iTESCk " Total lie. Does the Daily Mail EVER print truth?"

    It amazes me that so many people, especially on this forum, continue to read the Daily Mail and believe everything in it!

    This is just one example of a story that the subject has confirmed is a total lie. Also, Dawkins is a man of utmost integrity, not a dodgy footballer or D-list celeb.

    Taking online and hard copy together the Hate Mail is rightly Britains most widely read newspaper

    http://filipinaroses.com/showthread....ight=hate+mail

    Important stories like these are ignored by the likes of the Guardian & Mirror because they support the germs:-

    Caught on CCTV: Moment 'polite and charming' Eastern European scammers stole £300 from woman at a cashpoint by pretending she had dropped £5 on the floor

    Violent criminal to be handed thousands of pounds in compensation after judge said he was unlawfully detained while the Government tried to deport him

    • Salimur Rahman, 31, was jailed in 2010 for mugging a lone woman at night
    • When his sentence ended, he was kept in custody ahead of deportation
    • But he was 'uncooperative', claiming not to know which country he was from
    • The Home Secretary spent three years struggling to deport him, but failed
    • London's High Court ruled that by last April, she should have freed Rahman
    • He said his human rights were breached as he wasn't freed until September
    • The judge agreed, and Rahman now stands to receive a five-figure sum

    Let's face most forms of media be it TV or print have their own agenda or like to put their own slant on things and the Daily Heil is no exception. You're right Dawkins is an intelligent decent man but The Heil probably view him as a threat to their core readerships view of the world. There's more than enough of Dawkins available on You Tube for anybody of reasonable intelligence to workout he's not barking mad.
    I don't buy any Newspapers but I'm lucky I have a job where if I want to read one it costs me nothing and I'll read them all and make my own mind up.

    Let's face it we live in the only Country in the World where all forms of media - both print and TV - have managed to convince the majority of people with the help of successive governments that a pair of scumbag doctors from Leicestershire had nothing to do with the death or disposal of their own daughters body.

    The Mail just reflects it's readership. They're all the same though, the Mirror twists stories and lies to protect it's beloved Labour Party. The Mail is running smear stories galore on UKIP as this is a threat to the Tories.
