A UK newspaper which occasionally publishes material of relevance, although its reputation for truthfulness is not the best.

The Daily Mail is a UK newspaper with a poor reputation for reliability.

Poor Reliability

The Daily Mail has a poor reputation for reliability and does include completely fabricated material.[citation needed]

Use on Wikispooks

If available, alternative sources should generally be used in preference. Sometimes, such as the 2009 report on the Red House meeting this may not be possible.

Banning on Wikipedia

In February 2017, Wikipedia editors decided that the Daily Mail should no longer be accepted as a source, due to "poor fact-checking, sensationalism, and flat-out fabrication." [1]

Daily mail 911 israel did it.jpg

The Daily Mail has consistently backed the 9-11 Official narrative. On November 6, 2018 it posted a story about Kees van der Pijl's tweet which linked to the "9-11 Israel did it" page. Entitled "Sussex University investigates professor who claims Israel was behind 9/11 Twin Towers attacks 'with help from Zionists in US government'", it began with the statement that "Sussex University is investigating..." but 3 paragraphs further on stated that "Sussex University said it is aware of the post and has not yet decided whether to take further action."

Although a lot of the article focused on criticism which was quickly levelled at him, the comments section as of 10 November appeared broadly supportive, with criticisms of him being largely downvoted and the most upvoted comment simply asking "Why are certain topics off limits in a western world that claims to support free speech?" Another stated that The headline should read "Sussex University examines claims made by professor etc", not just "investigate professor" without certifying if the claim he made is valid or not. Another case of guilty before case proven! [2].[3]

Tony Rooke

rightt In 2013, 9-11 dissident Tony Rooke was tried for refusing to pay his TV licence to the BBC, arguing that this would be an offence because of what he knew about the BBC's silence tacit complicity in the 9-11 cover up. The Daily Mail was the only UK corporate controlled newspaper to cover the story.[4]

Marc Turi

Full article: Marc Turi

In 2016, the Daily Mail reported on a case that that was not widely reported by other commercially-controlled media that the USDOJ had dropped all charges against Marc Turi "after he threatened to expose Obama and [Hillary] Clinton's role in arming extremists".[5]

 

Quotes by Daily Mail

PageQuoteDateSource
2023-2024 Israel-Hamas War/Israeli invasion of Gaza“When I was first asked to work there [at Shifa], I was told there was a part of the hospital I was not to go near, and if I did, I’d be in danger of being shot. No, but implicit was that it was being used for non-medical purposes. I stayed away, but I saw a few dodgy-looking non-medical characters going in and out all the time. It was a ward leading to a basement. As I said, I didn’t go there; so I behaved myself. I was welcome everywhere else, and as I say the doctors and nurses there were very welcoming and very kind and the hushed tones under which this was said was very consistent with all the other hushed tones with which Hamas was discussed. You know people were genuinely fearful. I cannot emphasise too much, the air of collective paranoia that existed there. If hospital staff were 10 per cent frightened of possible Israeli airstrikes, they were 90 per cent frightened of being persecuted by Hamas.’”2023Daily Mail
