The Daily Mail does the moral outrage thing very well, but it doesn't use its front page to tell you what to think (except when it occasionally runs a comment on the front page, which is always clearly labelled as such) or to suggest you're heartless or pathetic if you don't think a certain way. The Guardian and the Inde, on the other hand, are very good at adopting a tone of snide moral superiority even in items that are, ostensibly, straight reporting and not editorial comment.
