Short description:
EU is struggling with democratic deficit – does regional newspapers add to this deficit by e.g. framing the union in a negative way?
This dataset contains an overview of 175 articles on EU brought in four Danish regional newspapers from 1 April 2015 to 31 March 2016. The aim with the data is to study whether and how the newspapers cover EU with local angles. The data represents both manifest as well as latent content.

Type of data: Student data.
