Though it seems to me that most DM articles are troll-y in nature. I imagine their newsroom to be full of whiteboards, which are covered in bullet points detailing how to upset the public.

but I dunno, there is a definite motive behind their articles; they want people to be angry, which I can assume is why they blame everything on immigrants, gays, etc.
There is indeed a motive, but no final outcome planned, other than sitting back and watching the world burn, hunting foxes and beating peasants as they do.
tl;dr - they write articles for racist old people and pseudo-intellects.

I thought the point of the DM was just to get page views? The more controversial, the more they are talked about. As normal, among the replies to this post is a DM link. So that is a few more pennies from their advertisers. They then hope you stay on their site following other "outraged" articles or their half dressed "celebrities"...
It long ago stopped being a "news"paper as gossip and outrage sells better.

Now, who is going to own up to autoasphyxiation-induced arse cancer whist simultaneously being racist about *pulls a piece of paper out of a hat* um, Serbians, have we done Serbians yet?"
