As if we didn’t already know

For those of us too lazy and/or busy to read the whole thing, are there any summary points that stand out?

A couple of bits stood out for me: -

Coverage of the effects of immigration was overwhelmingly negative. Migrants were blamed for many of Britain’s economic and social problems – most notably for putting unsustainable pressure on public services.
UK media coverage of the EU Referendum campaign can best be described as acrimonious and divisive.

I *think* it means the "establishment" has convinced the immigrants are to blame for the establishment screwing things up.

No doubt sasguru will be along soon to point out I am a cretin. Without offering any reasoning....

The Remain claim that Brexit would cost households £4,300 per year
by 2030 was discussed in more articles than the Leave campaign’s
claim that the EU cost the UK £350 million each week (365 articles
vs 147 articles).

problems – most notably for putting unsustainable pressure on public
services.
• Specific nationalities were singled out for particularly negative
coverage – especially Turks and Albanians, but also Romanians and
Poles.
• The majority of negative coverage of specific foreign nationals was
published by three news sites: the Express, the Daily Mail, and the
Sun.

Well I'm shocked.

Switzerland has just implemented immigration limits on Bulgarians & Romanians

Will be interesting to see if it's extended beyond 2019
