Zusammenfassung:What do citizens get to hear about the European Parliament (EP)? Since Brussels and Strasbourg are far away, most people follow the EP through the media. PADEMIA member Olga Eisele looks at newspapers to assess whether and how the European Union’s only directly elected institution is portrayed in the media.
