This book offers a wealth of original empirical data on how online
media shape EU contestation. Taking a public sphere perspective,
the authors highlight the myths and truths about the nature of
audience-driven online media content and show how public demands
for legitimacy are at the heart of the much-analyzed politicization
of European integration. What EU citizens most intensely debate
online are the fundamental questions of what the European
institutions stand for and how they can be held accountable.
Drawing on innovative and rigorous analysis of online media
ownership, journalistic content and online readers' inputs, the
authors piece together the components of the dynamic nature of EU
contestation and the degree of convergence towards Euroscepticism
across EU member states in the first years of the Eurocrisis. There
is no doubt that EU citizens have strong opinions about the EU and
interactive online media allow these opinions to come to the fore,
to be challenged and amplified both within and beyond national
public spheres. Yet, for all its potential to unite European
publics, online EU contestation remains firmly anchored in offline
news media frames, while citizens and journalists alike struggle to
put forward a clear vision of the future EU polity.
