Meanwhile, the DailyMail remains one of the United Kingdom’s most widely read publications. Originally launched as a middle-market newspaper targeting the working and middle classes, it quickly attracted a large audience with its accessible language, emphasis on human interest stories, and shorter, more engaging articles compared to traditional newspapers.
The DailyMail has gained particular popularity in the U.S., where it covers Hollywood celebrities and American politics extensively. Its assertive approach and focus on U.S. political issues have made it a prominent source for news and political commentary throughout the election cycle.
