The author argues that newspapers such as theTelegraph, Mail, Sun and Express have been effectively waging a long-term propaganda war, with the distortions and borderline fake news presented one of the factors that helped secure the narrow majority for Brexit. Written by an EU insider, the book presents hard facts and debunks the core myths on EU laws, exorbitant budget contributions, and uncontrolled immigration, as it contributes to the debate on the importance of the press for democracy more broadly. Francis Rawlinson is a former EU Commission official. He is also Fellow of Kwansei Gakuin University, where he was a professor for EU studies from 2011 to 2017. He has written on EU competition law, state aid control, the euro and regional development. 000924898 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on February 11, 2020). 000924898 61020 $$aEuropean Union$$zGreat Britain. 000924898 650_0 $$aPress and propaganda$$zGreat Britain. 000924898 650_0 $$aPress and politics$$zGreat Britain. 000924898 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z303027764X$$z9783030277642$$w(OCoLC)1107589431 000924898 852__ $$bebk 000924898 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-27765-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000924898 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:924898$$pGLOBAL_SET 000924898 980__ $$aEBOOK 000924898 980__ $$aBIB 000924898 982__ $$aEbook 000924898 983__ $$aOnline 000924898 994__ $$a92$$bISE
