But that cuts both ways. The pro-EU press gives a misleading impression as well, usually by refusing to report on any story that makes the EU look bad, or by putting a spin on events that blames member states instead of the institutions.
After all, by your argument influential people go read the Financial Times because they think it suits their station in life, or because they want financial news, and end up being exposed to a constant litany of pro-EU stories, resulting in them voting that way in the referendum (and not only voting but being quoted by other campaigners and news outlets as 'experts', a perk accorded to the sorts of people who read the Economist but not the Daily Mail).
After all, the FT literally flies the EU flag above its headquarters. Not exactly a neutral source, is it.
