Destructive Storytelling

Disinformation and the Eurosceptic Myth that Shaped Brexit

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the role of disinformation in shaping public perception, this book examines how false reporting in the British press regarding EU policies contributed to the Brexit vote. Employing Critical Discourse Analysis, it reveals the linguistic traits of misleading news stories that function as myths, simplifying complex political issues and fostering a Eurosceptic narrative. By illustrating the depoliticization of political arguments, the author argues that such disinformation has rendered political journalism dysfunctional, making it a vital resource for students and scholars in related fields.
