Summary/Abstract: As an initial investigation into the motives behind the Euroscepticism of three tabloids (the Sun, the Mail and the recently schizophrenic Express), this article focuses in detail on the sceptical newspapers The Times and the Daily Telegraph. It examines the discourses of nationalism present in these newspapers’ reporting on the European Union, leading to the argument that this nationalism appears to be, to varying degrees, a camouflage for the commercial interests of the newspaper owners. The article concludes with a reflection on the implications of the way the British press reports for British democracy.
