The impact of the mass media on individuals' political behavior has received a lot of scholarly attention. However, there has been little research done to determine whether and to what degree the media affects citizens' knowledge about the EU. This paper examines whether Turkish citizens' level of knowledge about the EU varies with exposure to television, radio and newspapers using empirical evidence from the 2006 Eurobarometer survey data.
