British journalism and the European Union: Shocking!

Having read this article by the British daily The Observer, Jon Worth concludes:

"How, how, how can a major UK newspaper get away with publishing something that is so completely and utterly rubbish? No wonder the UK population is bewildered by the EU when paid journalists cannot even be bothered to do a bit of basic research about what the rules are."

Read both, the Observer article and Jon's reply - and you will understand why reading European blogs sometimes is much better than reading a national newspaper writing about European issues...
