Mass media everywhere reproduced a sensualistic ?Greek crisis? spectacle, while iterating neoliberal and occidentalist ideological myths. Overall, the Greek people were deemed guilty of a systemic crisis, supposedly enjoying lavish lifestyles on the EU?s expense. Using concrete examples, the study foregrounds neoorientalist, neoracist and classist stereotypes deployed in the construction and media coverage of the Greek crisis. These media practices are connected to the ?soft politics? of the crisis, which produce public consensus over neoliberal reforms such as austerity and privatizations, and secure debt repayment from democratic interventions. 410 0$aStudies in Critical Social Sciences;$vvolume138. 606 $aMass media$xSocial aspects$zEuropean Union countries 606 $aFinancial crises$zGreece$xPress coverage 606 $aStereotypes (Social psychology) in mass media 606 $aMass media and international relations$zEuropean Union countries 607 $aGreece$xEconomic conditions$y2009-$xPress Coverage$zEuropean Union countries 615 0$aMass media$xSocial aspects 615 0$aFinancial crises$xPress coverage. 615 0$aStereotypes (Social psychology) in mass media. 615 0$aMass media and international relations 676 $a302.23094 700 $aMylonas$b Yiannis$01493829 701 $aMylonas$b Yiannis$01493829 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793762303321 996 $aThe "Greek crisis" in Europe$93717044 997 $aUNINA
