Apologies for linking to the Daily Wail but as Dally had inexplicably missed this Wail story, I thought it best to bring to people's attention.


For balance, here's a random selection from the comments following the online article

Is it April 1st already? Surely that article is saying Wail readers aren't as intelligent as they think :?

Quote:The study, published in Psychological Science, claims that right-wing ideology forms a 'pathway' for people with low reasoning ability to become prejudiced against groups such as other races and gay people.

It's all a bit sweeping isn't it?
I mean, not all right wingers are stupid, most are just selfish or scared. :twisted:

Hardly surprising news for regular visitors to the Sin Bin. You can see the findings of this study played out on here every day of the week.

I saw a link to this on Facebook (other social networking sites are apparently available) earlier, and my first reaction was "why the feck did the eitor not bin that story?"
Surely alienating your own readership isn't particularly intelligent?

Oh, and my second thought was "In further news, water is found to be wet".

There is something very ironic about an article that stereotypes people who may develop stereotypical views of others.
