I'd call them cunning and aware rather than smart, thoughI've read too many Daily Mail articles written by illiterates to assume they've got much of a grasp of English.
Also, I second the "girls in bikinis and celebs falling out of cars" part of it. I actually read the Daily Mail website quite often - entirely for the comments section, which is enjoyable in the way that watching an entire species lower themselves to the level of the tramp flinging shit at a wall is enjoyable. By "enjoyable" I mean "distressing and mind-numbing".
