Authors:
Challenges the notion of an impartial British fact-centred press covering Europe – by revealing how it is often as persuasive as its Italian counterpart
Reveals how Berlusconi and Murdoch have played their part in the persuasion engendered in their titles
Explores how we very much come to see and understand Europe via the prism of nation and despite the globalised web age, there is often an abrogation of responsibility by EU/national politicians and journalists to communicate clearly and comprehensively the actual EU-focused story
Analyses how the likes of even more popular Eurosceptic forces have come to the fore, such as the Five Star movement in Italy and UKIP in Britain

About this book
The book will explore the national responses to the post-war project; how the EU is understood through the prism of nationhood; and how that has now manifested itself in Euroscepticism in both countries, lastly articulated through interviews with British and Italian politicians and journalists involved.
It will include Euroscepticism’s latest chapter. The increasingly key protagonists of the UK Independence Party and Italy’s Five Star Movement, want to take Britain out of the EU and Italy out of the euro – covered in the Murdoch and Berlusconi press.
This book offers a rigorous academic analysis presented in an accessible style to experts and laypersons alike, exploring concrete articulations of Euroscepticism in the press – Selling the Public Short.
