Daily Mail Warning On Scare Stories
“SCARED TO DEATH,” writes the Mail.
“They said BSE would kill 500,000 people – then changed it to 200. The Millennium Bug was going to destroy civilisation..and, er, nothing happened. In fact, says a new book, it’s scare stories themselves that are the real menace.”
Scare stories. Tsk! In today’s Mail:
“RAPISTS WHO CAN LAUGH AT THE LAW”
“Arthritis patients ‘face a life of pain from drug rationing”
“Flesh-eating MRSA ‘the deadliest of all’”
“Danger drugs for schizophrenics used to calm children of ten”
“Putting on pounds ‘doubles prostate cancer death risk’”

Is ‘the daily blast of fear and loathing ‘ - or Paul Dacre - having an identity crisis?
Only last week they seemed to be criticizing Nazi sympathizers.
But it’s probably just crass hypocrisy from this unspeakably disgusting fascist rag.
