Along with MSN News, the Daily Mail is in fact the most read news source in the English speaking world, according to this article:

I don't know whether that is just online, or the combined number of online and print readers. In terms of print circulation, the Daily Mail is no. 2 in the UK (after The Sun), with close to 2 million copies sold.
The Mail Online website overtook the New York Times website in January of this year to become the most read newspaper website.

I completely agree. It's very scary that the Daily Mail is more accessible than the Times on the internet right now. :-?
