newspapers and Update on 'Newsnight'newspapers



Catching up with Newsnight's EU referendum coverage....

Here's how things have gone since ITBB's last post on the subject:


31/5
Joint interview: Emma Reynolds, Labour (REMAIN); Chris Grayling, Conservative (LEAVE)
Interview: Jon Cruddas, Labour (REMAIN)

1/6
Joint interview: Kavita Oberoi, Oberoi Consulting (REMAIN); John Longworth, chairman Vote Leave business council (LEAVE)

2/6
Interview: Mikhail Khodorkovsky, former oligarch (REMAIN)

3/6
Joint interview: Alastair Campbell. former Labour advisor (REMAIN); Dia Chakravarty, Tax Payers' Alliance (LEAVE); Simon JenkinsThe Guardian (UNDECIDED)
{Closing images comparing Boris to Trump}

6/6

Joint interview: Andrea Leadsom, Conservative (LEAVE); Pascal Lamy, former head of WTO (REMAIN)


7/6
Joint interview: Yvette Cooper, Labour (REMAIN); Kwasi Kwarteng, Conservative (LEAVE)
[Interview: Martin LewisMoney Saving Expert (REMAIN - but questionable)]

8/6
Joint interview: Lord Haywood, Conservative pollster (REMAIN); Harriet Harman, Labour (REMAIN)

9/6
Interview: Owen Smith, Labour (REMAIN)

10/6
Joint interview: Tim MontgomerieThe Times (LEAVE); Anne McElvoyThe Economist (REMAIN)
Interview: Lord Hill, EU commissioner (REMAIN)

By my reckoning that changes our running total, which was
60 Pro-Remain
44 Pro-Leave
12 Questionable/Undecided  
to...

72 Pro-Remain
50 Pro-Leave
14 Questionable/Undecided 

,,,which is something of a regression back towards pro-Remain bias. 

As for the sub-trend of regarding who gets most of all of the solo appearances (i.e. not in joint interviews), well, we left that at: 

Remain - 25
Leave - 14

I now make that:

Remain - 29
Leave - 15


...with Remain fast approaching double the number of one-person interviews that Leave has been invited to attend.
