Swedish hacks 'more left wing than public'

Swedish journalists are more left-wing than their readers, according to a survey. For instance, while most Swedes want tax cuts and favour retaining nuclear power, journalists reject both ideas. The findings are presented in a book by university researchers, Den Svenska Journalistkåren (The Swedish Press Corps). One other example of the difference is the attitude towards refugees: 49% of Swedish people want to reduce the number of refugees while only 11% of journalists favour a cut. (Via The Local)
