Abstract

The aim of the article is to present the assessment of the EU information policy instruments made by Polish journalists of the mainstream media, as well as their opinion about the instruments and the extent to which they are used. The analysis tries to verify the assumption that the journalists use the instruments of the EU information policy in their editorial work and approve them, as much as they approve the European project. Despite positive opinions, the journalists have some objections to the functioning of some instruments and they propose introducing modifications that would make them function better. The research method that has been applied in the analysis is the semi-structured in-depth interview. The non-probability sampling was used in the research. The key criterion for respondent selection was raising the subject of the EU in editorial work.
