That the EU has its own Press agents that work with all Member state media and the international Press Including the USA&#x27; is simply a truism. Policy emerges from Brussels and is widely reported across the media in Europe and the US.<p>Certainly the EU is heading for political and economic union and to that extent its report of itself is a conspiracy if you want to call it that but it doesn&#x27;t really meet the definition.<p>Curious to know why it hurts! Btw stuff that arrives on HN that isn&#x27;t appreciated is normally simply ignored. That&#x27;s democratic choice; offering directives is a tad authoritarian, is it not?
